Can't beat Ainley for thrash. I seem to recall the Duple tigers handled it quite well. Had a Huddersfield Atlantean once and didnt think it was going to make it.

37756 has an overall offside vinyl advert for the film The Hunger Games, Mockingjay Part 2. It's 37656 not '756. Usually found on the 56 most days.

Latest repaints 60925 Bradford skylines 36245 Leeds skylines 37670 Leeds skylines not X84. Noticed today that the nearside Leeds skyline on 37670 has been replaced with X84 once again. Not sure about the offside because it's currently covered with the James Bond ad. I photographed it maybe a couple of weeks ago and it had Leeds then so must have been changed recently.

37300 at Hunslet park to repainted to replace 30843 Shame they haven't picked a Yorkshire registered one for this. Was hoping they were going to do one of the X63 ones as I see them every day.

I do see your point, but,(arguably) the B9TL is superior to the B7TL and in theory an 07 plate will be around longer than a 54 plate anyway. Fortunately they've chosen a Gemini, which should suit ye olde livery well. Could've been worse, could've been an ALX400 as recipient. The only downside really is, sadly when 37300 is outshopped, it looks like the end for 30843.

Remember how long it took First to decide on a bus for Leeds' heritages. They had to go in interior quality & windows etchings. I imagine they'll have gone through a similar process here and 37300 could be the tidiest of the Geminis

For the centenary celebrations it was repainted into the Huddersfield Joint Omnibus Committee colour's, which indeed are very similar to the corporation colour's, but only 30843 wears the authentic Huddersfield Corporation livery from that era. 6299 still exists and still stands proud in it's HJOC livery, currently used as a mobile cafe darn sarf somewhere.

Joined by 32522 today. The orange shown on the front is also on the back panel from floor to ceiling. Also note the use of a very large "f". Is this a route rebranding
