From first impressions, Huddersfield Bus look to be turning out to be quite a good little company. They have invested in the services weeks after their take-over. Hopefully they will keep this up and improve all the services they operate, and eventually look at expending into new areas.
Has anything been decided with K-Line, or is this going to remain a separate operation with different livery / name?

The first vehicle that will be getting painted into the new Centrebus livery will be V502EFR. Well that is what has been said on TSY. Have you any idea what livery is to be used by Huddersfield Bus Company?

All six Centros are now at Huddersfield.
They are Plaxton Centro bobied VDL SB200s and are as follows: YJ08DWK/DWL/DWM/DWN/DWO/DWP
Still nothing happening to the rest of the fleet as yet.

I understand that the next vehicles to be repainted are planned to be the Myllenium bodied Dafs, but in what livery I don't know. I believe that the idea is to paint a further 3 or 4 vehicles in the two tone green livery as branded buses for the 80 to 84 routes with the remainder with either some other branded livery or the Centrebus livery.

Ive noticed that the Mylleniums are starting to look a little shabby. I think they would look good in the two tone Green livery.
Also the Centros have gained fleet numbers. They are: 419-424.

Hate to be picky but the Centros fleet numbers are 719-724.
The Mylleniums would look better in red as would all the fleet, but there again I'm just an old traditionalist.

Sorry yeh I ment 719-724. Been working with to many numbers recently.
I do wounder how long its going to be till the Centros gain any form of route branding. They are for the 80-84 set of routes but I have seen them working on the 262 and 231/232 routes. Are we likely to see these buses carrying route branding yet working on the wrong routes?
