66700 entered service onto the 1 this afternoon from Lawnswood School just after 3pm.
One of the new B7RLEs on the 56 was 69336 with branding for the Scott Halls.

Totally inappropriate for this service, certainly for the time of day I saw it when the number of standing passengers almost looked to exceed those seated. As the bus finally pulled away from the stop the occupants of the crowded interior looked like cattle being whisked off to the market!

What Volvo B10BLEs on the 28 are you talking about Nick? Leeds have NO B10BLEs allocated.

wright fusion 10023 was seen tonight operating the 42!!!! Haha, I saw this as well! Pretty odd to see, especially with the Brown Line branding. There seems to be a Wright Renown that's been doing the rounds on the 2/3/12/13 past few days.

It will be either a floline (scania L94UB) or a Ultraflow (Scania L113) sorry for being picky!

Wont be a wright renown as it has a volvo b10le chassis. It will be either a floline (scania L94UB) or a Ultraflow (Scania L113) sorry for being picky! They all look the same to me. It was probably whichever is used on the 18s and (formerly) the Scott Halls. Wright Axcess? Seen some other odd misallocations. A few weeks ago in Leeds Bus Station I saw a Blue/Red Line branded B9TL with the destination blind reading "Light Green Line - 33". Not only does the 33 rarely use B9TLs, it isn't even based at Cherry Row. Also, coming home from College the other week I saw an old double decker (don't know which type - it's blind was the old printed words one) with it's destination blind reading "Whinmoor - 4" headed down Roundhay Road towards town! I see a lot of ftrs headed town-bound down Roundhay Road saying out of service. Would anyone know why?

Would anyone know why? cherry row lent a b9tl to headingly. that old double decker would be a leyland omlypian ECW. there have been some staff shortagess recently who can handle the FTRS. best way to tell the difference if a wright is a scania or not is if the number board at the back window is at the top or not. on scanias its on the bottome of the window, volvo or VDL its on the top. externally they are the same, they get a different name for each chassis used. compare the back of a b10LA wright volvo to a scania one and you'll know what i mean.
