As well as the X18 Arrive also ran the X16 and X17 during the day from Leeds White Rose Ossett Horbury and Overton or Netherton. I think the worked these off the back of the 117/8 from Leeds.

I'm sure the X39 (or could it have been 239?) operated one or two services from Dewsbury through to Sheffield via Mirfield, Huddersfield etc. I seem to remember seeing it operated by a Batley Bus Company Leyland National (a green livery) a few years back.
Also, from the list don't forget the evening peak time X22 from Huddersfield to Dewsbury operated by Tracky Fastlink Metrobuses. This was after the original X22 was cancelled.

I think the X14 was one of the peak time services that ran between Leeds and Kippax then on to Castleford, Ledston Luck or Micklefield. Over the years there were routes numbered X4, X14, X40, X44, X66 and possibly others.
