AY President 694 enjoying a 'swansong' on 268 this afternoon, it would be nice to bang the last 4 all onto 268, before withdrawal, afterall, they,(687/8/9/91-6) were brand new for 268, back in 2000. White Unbranded DF Streetlite seen in Dewsbury, coming off Church Street, (Free Town Bus route) and heading towards Sainsbury store. CT Plus route learning??? MX12 I believe that Streetlite is a CT Plus one as I thought I saw one last week in their Leeds depot when passing on a Virgin East Coast train.

MX12 I always thought that 687 and 688 were unbranded, these two tended to be used to increase capacity on the X33 on a Saturday when new. Yes, timelesstable, 687 & 688, did used to be used on X33 on Saturdays, due to them not being branded for the 268, they then had the mobile phones installed, just like the Volvo singles (102-5/7-9) had. Whenever you broke down, while on 268 if you had 687/8 or on a Saturday with one of the 100's, you always used the bus phone, instead of using your own. Lol

324 has the 'new' all depots blind list, so destination numbers are different to all other vehicles (except Elland) If driver looks through, he'll find the correct number Must have been quicker to make a paper one, slot it into a see through cover and stick this to the windscreen, progress.................. www.flickr.com/photos/85396310@N06/17219912546/ Nicely written number (or scribbled lol)

All Heckmondwike's Presudents were still in use today, along with (at least) ALX400 653, on the 220 and Commanders 1414 and 1415. On the 229 was Eclipse 1103. Darwen Olympus 1808 is still at Dewsbury and was seen in the 281.

Lol It is true then that mobile phones (Nokia Bricks) worked in Bradford as early as 2000!

Arriva B7RLE on 229. But as it interworks with the 252 I suppose it's common.
Seen heading up Geldard Road last night, (I was driving down towards Leeds)
