Can we please stop the needling each other regarding state of uniforms etc.
Please keep this thread for discussing the topic in question and not for making personal comments.

As far as i can see, the comments about stand blocking do not appear derogatory or abusive and are not directed at any person in particular, but towards Arriva.
Whereas, your comment about uniforms is directed towards Malli and could be construed as derogatory.

Sorry we will have to agree to disagree some of my comments were aimed at Tates in general and no-one specfically.

I had a peek at Tate's official website for the first time today and found it very impressive. I think it's a massive thumbs up, when operators take the trouble to include an enthusiast's section to keep bus fans like us informed of changes to their fleet etc. I just wish the corporate giant's will follow suit, but i doubt they will. So thank's to Tates from me.

Oddly After just around a year S609HGD (1609) Has gained Fleet livery from its allover white. This is recent and was in layover this morning in Barnsley looking fantastic to say the least. Looked twice at the reg, Then fleetnumber and couldnt believe it.

would not have thought so,it went in the garage last week for some panel work and they put the blue on at the same time,not the best bus in the fleet and is normally only a spare bus along with YDZ2082 which cover for buses off for inspection etc.

Well i must say i did expect S609HGD to be the first into new livery been white so long, Not sure about the correct time span but its been a long one. CC05BLU remains White now and i'm sure an CN04 Dart does too

How are Tates new Wakefield routes going. Has Arriva continued there stand blocking antics or has it calmed down.

I didn't think there would be any Metro staff at Wakefield, what with Wakefield Bus Station being an Arriva bus station...

Arriva operate services on 'behalf of Metro' and Metro can enter Wakefield Bus Station to do monitoring checks as and when they like or feel necessary after a complaint or allegation is made. Penfold
