That list of cancellations C7, C8, C38, C42, NC1 to NC9 is practically their entire output, so they must either be reregistering them on another licence or shutting up shop.

It's a shame but, you are correct. Keeping C68 & C70.

Many of the services run to/from the Cleckheaton, Heckmondwike, Dewsbury areas so maybe Arriva could run some of them with reinstated Spectras?

If Centrebus Gained more deckers, they could be a contender? I think they run them a few years back with the Various Ex Coastliner Olympians.

There are plenty of Deckers available on the open market so I would also look at a Huddersfield Bus Co to be running these going forward

I remember it being said that Centrebus gave them up when they took over Stagecoach because the balance of schools pvr to regular pvr was too high. Far too many buses required for a few hours work.

Not willingly at the time (and Waterloo only ever ran a handful of them), from what I remember the tendering for these contracts closed at around the time Centrebus acquired Waterloo (I think just before) and I don't think Stagecoach submiited a bid before the sale so the services were lost. I would take any rumours about what Centrebus may or may not have done or be doing with a pinch of salt, those that know about what is happening don't tend to let things slip (and aren't, by and large, based in Yorkshire) whilst those who may talk will rarely have the full picture. I've not heard these services being discussed so don't know whether they have been turned down (or even if we have been approached, I would have expected to have been involved in any discussion on how we could cover them if we had) but if they want one operator to run all of them then it would be an issue to cover them as 9 extra school pvr would be an issue from a driver perspective if nothing else (also depending on the capacity required for each route) though by the sounds of it there could be scope to spread them out around more than just one depot. I guess it is just wait and see who gets them in the end, as depending on how much notice HJC gave they may not have begun tendering yet.

They are difficult to fit in with normal services as well as I believe one day a week they run an hour late in the morning and another day a week they run an hour early in the afternoon, so whoever gets them would have to run them purely as separate boards.

So, that's two X64's registered by M Travel (see first post). Although, with the new one being registered Monday-Saturdays, it seems that M Travel could be giving Arriva and First some competition between Kippax/Garforth and Leeds.
Meanwhile, more changes from First, K-Line, Centrebus, Geldards, Transdev in Keighley and TLC. I'm guessing the Huddersfield FTB is being re-routed to serve the new Kirklees College on Manchester Road, which was proposed in the past.

It would appear they're re-timing the 63 to give a better gap with the 62C, or so it needs to be
