On Sunday's the 255 is interworked with the 229 from Leeds, ie the driver will do 229 Heckmondwike - Leeds, 255 Leeds - Halifax - Leeds, 229 Leeds - Heckmondwike, then come off.

The new Gemini's at Huddersfield don't seem to be seeing much if any service meaning to fill the gap left by the ALX400s, there are lots of Olympians in use.
Seen today

Seen today 30815 on 328 30816 on 308 30823 on 310 30843 on 185 All the B9's from Bury are out in service. Huddersfield is in the unique position of having any "decker" working operated by a Gemini B7/ ALX B7/ Royale Olympian or now Gemini B9. The only route in Huddersfield which you can guarantee a dedicated allocated bus is the 363/X63 which is worked by guidewheel fitted B7TL's or B7RLE's, although, as posted on here even on that route misallocations can occur. It certainly isn't uncommon to see Olympians out in daily service in Huddersfield and that trend is likely to continue until DDA deadline day arrives.

More than likely since 905 was at Waterloo last week and in Tiger Orange, plus 896 is also currently at Waterloo. Back at Leeds for the summer to operate the Tuesday & Wednesday Dales runs (898/899) as it's now the only vehicle with a digi tacho in the fleet, unless the one out of 893 has gone into another decker.

So is it wrapped in cotton wool for the rest of the week? I suppose they could always borrow on the Arriva Yorkshire deckers with a tacho if 906 failed

Spotted one of the 56s dodging Chestnut Avenue and Queens Road in Hyde Park around 6pm, I didnt see the bus fleet number. I was just ahead of it, seen in my rear view mirror.
Turning right from Moorland Road, along Hyde park road, left Headingley lane,left back on route to Victoria Road.

The Moor Grange direction operated as quoted above again This morning. In the Afternoon 37664 was seen operating normal route to Moor Grange again. Unless there were some roadworks, on queens road and chestnut avenue.
