Right, it looks like all Dewsbury's 202/203's have all got Poppies on the front, apart from allover 1518, seen the UID one, plus 1520/24/28 all with single poppy on the front

Looking at the pic of 1918, how can passengers see out - of the front especially?

AY Darwens 1802 and 1803 are the next ones away for refurbishment into Frequenta livery. Penfold Given that current Frequenta routes 148 & 149 are basically single-deck, are these Darwens intended for other routes?

Nope, the intended service for them is 148/9 as deckers are required for certain boards due to school coverage. Penfold

I saw the report about 1546 refurbished. It is mainly the Eclipses and maybe Commanders and LoLiners still needing refurbishments.
Meanwhile, it could become common for buses to be refurbished and given e-leather seating.

Meanwhile, it could become common for buses to be refurbished and given e-leather seating. I agree. Sometimes it can be just the old fabric style seats that make the buses seem a bit grim. I was on 1542 the other day and, whilst the seats were very clean, they looked very worn. It occurred to me that there aren't many in that batch with the original seating. I think e-leather will become the norm - much easier to maintain. Perhaps more expensive? Eclipses next please. I'm a regular on 220—3 between Morley and Leeds.

I reckon that refurbishments now will have e-leather seating and pale blue livery. From the front it does look fairly fresh. It's just the sides that look a bit drab without any bright or dark colours, such as yellow or dark blue.

Optare Tempos 1307-12 recently came back here from North East with a complete refurbishment with new livery, new logo and interior.

I wonder how refurbishments to Darwens are coming along, if indeed they have started. As their leather seating was later replaced by standard seating, they may not need a refubishment. Even Eclipses seem to have been forgotten about.

Even Eclipses seem to have been forgotten about. Looks like repaint’s have been concentrated on Dewsbury depot, all the pulsars ( not so sure about 1495 ) have been repainted and refurbished, and the majority of the E200’s have had a repaint too !

Out of these, I saw 1053 refurbished today. Also, the Lolynes I saw have 2009 moquette so will have been refurbished. The Darwens I saw still have 2009 moquette too, having lost their leather seats when taken off the 110s. It's just the Eclipses that still have 1998 moquette, including 1106 (I think) which has recently been repainted.
