Is anybody off here attending the meadowhall rally tomorrow? I'm attending along with a Enviro400 from Stagecoach Yorkshire's Wakefield road depot.

All being well some of us from Dewsbury Bus Museum will be there with a proper bus, which did see some service in West Yorkshire.

Anyone go, a few ex-West Yorks examples were there
WYPTE 5504, Traction 245, and some others, no doubt someone will have a few pictures in due course

...and WYPTE 4472 (in Hudds 472 colours.) Had a nice ride on that to the museum.

Yes. it's a nice ride that one. It came over to Bfd a couple of years ago when the owners re-enacted the old route 66 (which sounds like a predecessor of the x33.) I joined them from Bfd to Dewsbury that day.
(In fact, you probably know about that, as it was advertised on the Dewsbury site!)

Yes I did, but unfortunately I couldn't make it that day.
The 66 was sort of an early X33 but it didn't use the motorway, just A roads all the way. 6 hour round trip. 1156 would have also found it way into Leeds on 67 again all A roads, that one was only a 5 hour round trip, no drivers hours regs those days....
