Commander 1413 was on the 212/231 today. Unusual to see one of the non Wakefield Commander's out on a Sunday.

Come to think of it, Belle Isle's 'Commanders' are somewhat a rarity down my end of West Yorkshire as well on Sundays. Where as the other six days a week on the 148/9/50 you always get the odd one or two mingling in with the Pulsars and Spectra's, and it's not unusual to see the odd 126/7 branded Gemini on it also. Sundays is usually Spectras and 110 branded Gemini's (1517 tonight on my journey to the pub).

All four are required for the morning and evening peaks on 126/7 when additional running time is provided. Between circa 10:00 and 15:00 only 3 of the Belle Isle ones are required (Dewsbury providing 7 all from the start of the morning peak until the end of the evening peak) The forth Belle Isle one spends its time between 10:00 and 15:00 on 148/9. You should see a 126/7 branded Gemini one at the same time on the same route each day provided all 4 are available and one isn't allocated to 110.

Just to add the duty for the 4th bus M-F is as follows (from what I remember) 0510 126 to Dewsbury and return at 0600 0645 446 to Leeds and 444 Wakefield at 0750 0855 148 to Knottingley (3 trips of mixed Knottingleys) 1530 parked up until 1550 1550 127 Dewsbury and return 1740 126 Dewsbury and return Dead to depot at 1920 Saturday BI only need at PVR of 3 so the fourth one is a spare bus Penfold

Two hour visit to Wakefield today saw Spectra 700 on the freebus, also saw two UID 'Gemini's wearing full rear-end adverts i hadn't seen before (not 1524 tho). One advert was for the 'M-ticket' travel card. Other one was multi-coloured (not sure what it was advertising).

Heckmondwike's 254/5 branded Volvo/Wright 1101 was on the 268 today. Yesterday saw one of that batch, along with one of the Lowlandersalso on the 268. Unfortunately I wasn't close enough to see which they were. We have so many daily 'misallocations' that I now wonder if they are such!

Usually the two buses on 48 just stay on there all day.
