I came across a pic of a former Arriva Spectra with Square Peg and quite liked the livery, having a municipal feel not a million miles from Leeds City Transport! I am just disappointed that a look at their website indicates that route 22 is Mon-Fri only. I hoped I could ride it on a Saturday.

Apparently drivers on the 22 have been mentioning about a change to route, to go via kippax and to run Monday to Friday 7am till 5pm and Saturday 9am till 3pm
Has anyone else heard about this or know any information about it?

Could have the 22 ran down Seacroft - Boggart Hill - Wetherby Road - Oakwood - Gledhow - Moor Allerton. Could have it ran like the old Yorkshire rider routings 30 and the old part of the 38, or 39 before it.

I think the band Be-Bop Deluxe were from Bradford. I mention them as their 1976 hit Ships in the Night had the opening lyric "Like a square peg in a round hole". You learn something new every day!

Ex Geldards T421GGO has now been acquired by Squarepeg for their increased schools contracts. Still carries JH Coaches livery.
It isn't known if they've acquired any others.

At least one of the ex-Geldards Scania N113 Alexander RH has been repainted in the SquarePeg livery I believe. Looks so much like a Yorkshire Rider liveried version from the rear.

Could get the 22 to Synchronise with times for the whole 173-175/A group that Arriva run, then they could be a service with good timings around those areas.

Fleet has expanded rather rapidly! Was that due to the downfall of Geldards?
