1414 is still operating from Heckmondwike, working the 209 today. 126/7 branded 1527 on 221, 1814/15 on 444/446 and I also saw 1919 on 282. I think 1414 and 1415 are due to stay at Hecky for the forseeable.....

1495 most have been pulled off 281/282. The route branding hasn't been removed from 1495, along with 1492 these two never carried any branding

Strange spot in Ilkley.
Transdev Mini Pointer Dart stood at stand A in the bus station ready to work the 11:42 873 to Malham. Meanwhile, another Transdev Dart in the layover area displaying '873 Ilkley'. As the Malham bus departs, the other Dart's destination changes to '873 Skipton' and it follows it out of the bus station, turns back in, pulls up at Stand A and departs with one little old lady on board about 2 minutes later. Puzzling in that the 873 is worked by 1 bus working from Keighley to Ilkley as a 762, before spending all day on the 873 and working back from Ilkley to Keighley as a 762 in the evening. That and the fact there is no short working to Skipton at that time.

That and the fact there is no short working to Skipton at that time. It may have been planned if there has been any disruptions. If trains hadn't been running today and tomorrow most operators said they were going to run duplicates. This may have happened with 873 if a rush was expected/anticipated. Could be the reason, besides the fact that Ilkley to Skipton isn't a rail route, trains were always going to be running at 11am, and the strike was cancelled. More likely, to be a duplicate for an expected bank holiday rush, maybe a journey earlier in the diagram had been busier to justify two buses.
