Volvo B7TL Alexander ALX400 was on the 1, Volvo Olympian with Unilink branding on the 3A, Volvo B7RLE on the 68A, Volvo B9TL with 110 branding on the 117 and Volvo B7RLE with 254/255 branding on the 220/221 today.
Also, a little late, but Volvo B7RLE instead of the Volvo B9TL on Huddersfield's 184 on Saturday.

Hey nick, the X84 has to match the high quality vandalisim as seen on all other routes in Leeds because your route wouldn't want to look out of place would it? First are just making sure this happens, you and fellow X84 passengers wouldn't want to miss out on the fine views as seen by other route passengers would you!

61127 was on the 4 last night and i loved it!
61101 was on the 50 this morning.
37676 was on the L1 this morning, yes thats right its 3days old and on a school run although i think it does work into another route.
With regard to a B7RLE on the 68A - there has been alot of them on there recently and i'm wondering if those that were on the 37 have now had guidewheels fitted and put onto the 18/18A/64/68/68A and obviously the 37 is operated by Wright Axcess

First are just making sure this happens, you and fellow X84 passengers wouldn't want to miss out on the fine views as seen by other route passengers would you! I would rather walk all the way from town to otley than travel on something that has LS11 written all over the seats and windows or a desperate 16 year old hucker with "call me on 07......." |

Well Nick, get excersising mate because by the look of things your wonderfully vandalisim free X84 buses will soon look a mess. How long before they get allocated to a late night run on any of the following-: 1,2,3,3a,12,13,13a or even get put on the 928 with an extra load of sick? |

Nick, First just want X84 users to share rather than be selfish and have all the good buses to yourselves! They then can't be acused by a certian government minister of providing quality buses for rich folk.

Transdev can be as bad Nick. Yesterday shuttle-branded Volvo B7 1811 was on the Oakworth/Bracken Bank services and Bracken Bank is not a particularly pleasant estate

The Alexander Strider on the 5 the other night was on a bay, also has the 33/33A been allocated B9TL's as I saw a load on them yesterday tea-time, also note they didn't have X84 branding on.

'Transdev can be as bad Nick. Yesterday shuttle-branded Volvo B7 1811 was on the Oakworth/Bracken Bank services and Bracken Bank is not a particularly pleasant estate '
A spare unbranded 662 normally works on the Oakworth/Brackenbank rota by design and this sometimes leads to a branded 662 on the rota. Brackenbank is not all that bad, but K & D have manged to make most baddies on their routes fully aware of the CCTV and its effciency at fast tracking peole to the police station

Well yesterday i saw one of the X84 B9TL's on the 33 and the passengers seemed laid back in those seats. Today there was Volvo Olympian 30815, and 15 minutes behind B7TL ALX 400 31143 both on the X84. Enviro 400 1906 was on the 254 to cleckheaton and weirdest yet, I Boarded Alexander Strider Volvo B10B 411 as it was on the 117 to Wakefield . Has this bus been loaned to Belle Isle temporarily. |

Seen a N113 strider on the 2, volvo olympian 34143 was on the 15, this afternoon at 1.30 by 4.30 seen it say sorry not of service. B7TL eclipse gemini 37055 was on the 670 and 37051 was on the 72. 37668 had bus driver finalist of the year 2009 on it. Plus I've seen an Arriva Yorkshire (Castleford) B7RLE allover white say sorry not it service going up the headrow. Couldn't help to think that the bus driver driving the 202 today,must have been blind. He checked my bus pass, then i had to hand it to him and it took 10 second to make a decision. I was thinkin, WHAT THE HELL.  it's in date what more do you need. He eventually did leave Leeds Bus stn, though he found it hard to get his gear from neutral into first. |
