A few vehicles have been in F&G DAF, Leeds Road, Huddersfield over the last few weeks, I assume they do testing etc?
L401CJF - Dart - Plaxton - Yellow school bus - Stotts, Milnsbridge
UID - Mercedes - Plaxton Paramount - Abbeyways - Been in for quite a few weeks now.
X47CNY - Volvo B10M - Plaxton Paragon - Ex Stagecoach 52534, in yellow & blue (Scottish Citylink style colours), looks a bit tatty, a few patches been done on the bodywork - This vehicle appeared last week. Still has stagecoach number on, but no fleetnames.
UID - Routemaster - In London red.

The Abbeyways coach will be SIA 743 (ex H608 TWA) and it has been there over 18 months (I've taken one bus there twice during that period).

The Abbeyways coach seems to have gone!
X47CNY dissapeared last week, but appeared this morning in overall black - except the roof (Including what I assume are some sort of air con units) still yellow! This vehicle is listed in Buses March fleet news as going to Ultimate Coaches of Stockton via Ensign, Purfleet.

UID Stagecoach Megabus double deck Vanhool coach receiving attention yesterday afternoon. I assume it must have broken down in the area.

Sometimes Arriva Yorkshire, give old buses to the Fire Service, to use for new recruits up at Birkenshaw HQ, a few years ago, one of the old Lynx training buses was there, until Fire service, had totally wrecked it, then it went to scrapyard
