Noticed over the past few days, in or around Huddersfield. Ex-Lothian SPD(181) Y181 CFS now painted all over white, possibly on school contract work. Anyone know who this bus now belongs to?.

First Bradford school service A60 between Beckfoot School and Greengates was in the hands of B7L 60908 this afternoon, I'm usually at work at this time but this is the first time I've seen this being operated by a single decker. Looks like Olympian withdrawals are starting to take effect. Can't think of a better use for the B7L's, hope they all move to schools then I won't have to suffer them anymore!

Isn't the A60 generally always a single deck on an afternoon? It always has been whenever I've seen it?

Passes my house and it's been double deck since I went to school at Beckfoot 30 years ago, when it was the 960. It's possibly the first time I've seen it this school year though so it may have been since the summer. I would imagine it's all that's needed now though as the popularity of Beckfoot means that East Shipley to Greengates children cannot get into the school unless they already have siblings there.

Arriva had Spectra 709 on the Wakefield Free City Bus this morning 1530 was on it at run out but was swapped a couple of hours later for 709. This of course is in place of AY Solo 3042 which is currently under investigation for a dodgy gearbox after being booked off earlier this week ! Penfold

Penfold I wouldn't know what happened earlier in the week too busy for some of us, but I understand that you might have got yourself rather close to another dodgy gearbox and even a set of batteries.......................................

It's operated by Greenline Bus. Thanks, got to be the pride of their fleet. probably soon will receive the obligatory paddy plate and maybe replace the Plaxton Verde.

I used to go to Beckfoot school and when I was there sd about 3x a year turned up on the school runs... Its prob nothing to do with short of olympians its probably was due to the bus been fixed from a earlier problem and that was the best fit

Also the 960 used to be run by transdev then go onto the 760 but even that was a sd once

All the other Beckfoot services on those days were either ALX400s, Olympians or Geminis.

Spotted an Enviro 400 on the 16 to Whinmoor at Leeds Park Row this morning around 10:30! Didn't manage to get the fleet number. Unusual as they're normally just used on 49, 50 & 50A. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Correct me if I'm wrong! Been one on a 16 a few times and they go onto the 4s sometimes. Sent from my GT-I9505 using proboards
