Not really special, but noticed all the special Hunslet park buses on the X84 37674, 37675 and 36245 all on the X84.
Also seen 69418 on the 6 two days in a row. Yesterday and today

I'm sure this has been around for some time now, Todmorden has at least one with Halifax having either one or 2 of the other 2. One of these has been seen on the 517 on a few occasions. Think they went to Calderdale a couple of years ago.

It isn't the bus that is unusual, I'm well aware Halifax has had 5 solos for a while now. The fact it is on the 549 and apparently only running to Hipperholme is what is unusual.

From yesterday New Brighouse turn backs on the 549 - The 4pm one was 30849, the 4:30pm one was a no show. Yorkshire Tiger 654 momentarily broke down on Market Street but after getting going again was declared a failure and was driven away by an engineer. Swapped over with 899 Brighouse 549s this afternoon - 4pm - 30860 4:30pm - once again did not run. I wonder if that second one ever actually runs, I wouldn't be surprised if it is withdrawn in the next service changes. Half the 541 was also missing this afternoon.

If it was turning at the circle (if it is still there) just down Wakefield Road, then Hipperholme Cross Roads would have been better perhaps. However, the fact that it says Halifax Road sort of suggests possibly turning at the Croslee ( Philips, when I worked there) Factory. Can't think of anywhere else where it could turn. However, there did used to be 548/9 journeys that operated via the Croslee Factory, both when I worked there and when I later worked out of Skircoat, I think there was also a special that started there, but I am sure these stopped a good few years ago.

The turning circle isn't still there and hasn't been for quite some while, 5 years probably more?
I'm guessing it is probably a mistake, but I'm wondering why that display is even available in the system. There are no journeys that terminate there, not even on Christmas Eve I don't think.

Forgot to mention this a couple of days ago but the Tiger 69 timetable according to Metro has term time departures from Infirmary Street and Headingley Campus going nowhere! Both the PDF and web times have this major error which quite frankly should have been spotted by Metro or Tiger by now.

Think they went to Calderdale a couple of years ago. 53301-03 are appearing on anything now where they used to be stuck on 542's during week & 517 on a Saturday, there is one out of Tod & was used on the full 592 the other day! They have one at tod for spare incase a school bus breaks down

There was a plain white Plaxton President broken down on the Shipley Airedale Road in Bradford earlier. I don't know what operator it was.

I saw an Eclipse on 9 to Seacroft on East Leeds Link Road!! (Junction with old Pontefract Lane) what on earth was this doing far away from its route. And yes driver had passengers, suffering a lengthy diversion to Seacroft.
This is a weird diversionary route, was the A642 or Swillington Lane Closed. Swillington Lane looked fine from Colton side. And A642 had cars from Garforth Side.
