Strider 61088 broke down in the bus station just before midday , probably operating on the 85/87 as it was at that stand. Saw the Anchory vechile truck coming to tow it away. Plus I also rode on DAF Ikarus 13, as it was on the 203 today, haven't been on one of the Ikarus buses in a while. So it was a privalege ridin on this one.

I got on 13 yesterday on the 202/3? but we had to get off it in Dewsbury and get on a 126/127 branded VDL Commander which is a misallocation.

ALX400 on the X84. The B9TL that was supposed to be on that route looked nice on the 85/87

I saw one of the 254/255 branded buses in Cleckheaton today with 262 Huddersfield via Mirfield etc. on the front. Do these buses ever run the 262 on evenings/Sundays?
A President was on the 268 this evening.

also on the 283 this evening was a lowlander with 202/203 branding, and a VDL Commander with 126 / 127 branding on. Both quite strange. This route is mainly served my ALX 200's which seem to be replacing the DAF Ikaruses on the 212 / 213 service.

I think all Arriva Routes are stored on the little computer for the destinations has last year a Lowlander on the 202 to Huddersfield had the 8?? (Grassington) Yorkshire Dales route showing and Dewsbury don't operate it.

Just to add a note on here. Sunday workings at Dewsbury are all now single decker operated to allow Arriva to save fuel (and money). Why does the same not apply at Heckmondwike? If Hecky hasn't eonough saloons for all its Sunday services, why not borrow from Dewsbury? It wouldn't be the first time because an Ikarus bodied M reg DAF was on the 229 one evening this week.

Maybe they use the buses that are nearest the front of the depot?
Also taking buses to/from Dewsbury depot would waste money and driver resources

I thought Dewsbury operated a run on 229 in the evening.

It's been a while since an ALX400 has been seen on the 56 and today it was 30862, This bus is loud though , especially with that fan and intercooler. It's the competitor towards similar 30953.

What time was it? Theres a run that finishes at eastgate at around 10am and they normally use an ALX400 on it.

I do see the short workings on the 56, just after the whinmoor bus, the Eastgate one does appear. Usually B9TL gemini's. Not a misallocation but did see a B7LA eclipse fusion on the 1 in town, next to Morrisons. The bus was 10039
