Saw an eclipse in Wakefield this afternoon with new branding on it for the 255 route. Not sure which one though, I only caught a glimpse of it as I was on another bus.

1101 & 1105, I think they've only been branded a few days.

I saw 1105 in Dewsbury this morning it had 255 branding on the offside and 254 branding on the nearside. Intersting variation, be interesting to see if the two routes are applied the same to all the Heckmondwike eclipses

Just noticed 1101 (as mentioned) above in Leeds with the new style 255 branding above the windows - it did look a little lost. Much more subtle than the old purple branding carried on those buses.
I thought that Arriva's 254/5 would be worked solely be the new Wright Gemini's, rather than by single decks? Suppose it makes more sense to use single decks on low usage journeys though. However, yesterday afternoon I spotted a Plaxton Presi on 255 and Lowlander on 254 (might have been the other way around) back on back on New York Street in Leeds!

Belle Isle Commander 1400, now carring new branding for Hemsworth Routes 194/5/6 That explains why I haven't seen it for a while. Haven't seen 1403 for a while either so that's probably getting the new branding too

1100 noted today with 254/255 branding. The list of Eclipses now carrying 254/5 branding now includes 1106 Saw one this morning with this new branding looks very plain and basic and small fonts. Not even a number on the windows like the deckers have on top decks. Just a list of services and a separate "up to every 10 mins" on the side or 15 whatever the frequent is now.

Does anyone know if arriva castlefords optare tempos will receive the new style branding Would seem to be pointless when the Tempos are used on most routes and not confined to the 163/6. The 163/6 would benefit from some new or refurbished deckers

Not sure if Castleford Tempo 1302 (Roger Millward MBE) was ever 163/6 branded, no doubt somebody on here will know. But, i saw it earlier and it is currently not route branded at all. I know a few of the Tempo's didn't recieve branding, 1302 could have been one of the few.

Looks like most of the Darwen Olympuses are now branded for the 202/203.
Noted 1809 & 1814 out today. All the other ones I saw out on the 202/203 were branded.

1543 now branded for 254/255 - I think only 1542/7/8 at Heckmondwike are unbranded now out of the new Gemini's.
1403 now branded for 194etc.
I think that most of the Darwens have now been branded for 202/203, not seen an unbranded one out for a few days now.
