I've just been told that 69279 (YJ57 YSR) is currently on loan from York to cover for the Bendy Buses going in for service or something like that.
& The Volvo Olympian's mentioned in another thread are also on loan but maybe staying at Cherry row.

Can see them staying at CRG and releasing some Royales/RHs into HP, which are much needed.

If the Volvo Olympian's from Bowling Back La were to be transferred to Cherry Row wouldn't Bradford be short for School routes when they all open their doors again after the snow?

No Volvo's are coming from Bradford, just the ones from Halifax.

30755 is also at Hunslet Park. It was on the 1 today. There was also a L-PWR on 97 at tea time.
About 10 of the bendys are now in storage and it's not thought these will run again in Leeds.

I thought there was a lack of them when i was down at Hunslet tonight. I saw 3 of them and thats it.
So they're replacing the bendys temporarily with what? We're short enough as it is even with the 4 Volvo Olympians on loan.

The Citaros are only a rumour and have not been confirmed as coming to West Yorkshire. How many times has this been mentioned and ignored?

Please also, as you're getting info from another group which requires you to seek permission before forwaring and crediting the original source. Can you please do this!

I'm not getting this from another group, I got told about these Citaro's from my friends. I do get some different info from YDBN but I didn't know I had to put the Source on here.

i aint a fan of citaros because of the stupid mini luggage rack at the back rear right seat, unless its just the singles like manchester own.

Ive noticed Dart R332HYG is repainted into first livery.

That will be because of the loss of the MC4 service, as this bus was previously in metroconnect livery for that service.
