Or could this be the route Ladies Only Travel have won? Would guess only 1 vehicle needed so could be ideal for them.

It would be a lot more practical if Leeds to Cleckheaton was reduced to every 20 minutes during the day, that frequency already exists in the afternoon. In addition, the service could be simplified with the 252 running along its existing route from Leeds to Cleckheaton to Scholes to Windy Bank to Liversedge to Heckmondwike to Dewsbury every 20 minutes.
The 255 to Halifax could run from Cleckheaton to Halifax only and be re-routed down Westgate and then towards Scholes to rejoin its existing route. It could be retendered to run hourly Monday to Saturday only. The 253 would be re-routed via Gomersal West End to retain a service there.

Details on the timetable changes for the 36, which will take place from 24 January. Some journeys re-timed with some morning journeys running from Starbeck, Bilton (weekdays only) or Jennyfield (weekdays only) with return journeys in the afternoon. Also, in a similar move to the X43 between Burnley and Manchester, Transdev will run a night service on the 36 between Leeds and Harrogate with some journeys continuing from Harrogate to Starbeck. The service will run on Friday and Saturday nights from Harrogate bus station at 2320, 0020, 0120 and 0220, returning from Leeds (York Street) at 0015 and 0115 to Harrogate and 0215 and 0315 to Starbeck via Harrogate. www.harrogatebus.co.uk/36.htmwww.harrogatebus.co.uk/cmsUploads/route/files/36ttdec15web-1.pdf

Weekday and Sunday journeys will be re-timed on First Greater Manchester service 184 from 24 January: Weekdays From Manchester:- The 1428 and 1528 journeys will be given extra running time between Hollinwood and Huddersfield, arriving 7 minutes later than currently scheduled at 1632 and 1732.
- The 1628 journey will be given extra running time throughout the journey, arriving in Huddersfield 8 minutes later then currently scheduled at 1833.
- The 1728 journey will be given extra running time throughout the journey, arriving in Huddersfield 5 minutes later then currently scheduled at 1930.
From Huddersfield:- The 0630 journey will be re-timed to depart Huddersfield at 0625 and will run 5 minutes earlier to Oldham. Additional running time between Oldham and Manchester, arriving 5 minutes later than currently scheduled at 0833.
- The 0735 journey will be re-timed to depart Huddersfield at 0730 and will run 5 minutes earlier to Oldham. Additional running time between Oldham and Manchester but will arrive in Manchester at same time (0928).

- The 1830 journey will be re-timed to depart Huddersfield at 1838 and run 8 minutes later throughout.
The re-timing does mean that several 184 journeys will run at similar times to First WY journeys on the 183 and 185. Sundays From Manchester:- The 1018, 1218, 1418 and 1618 journeys will be given extra running time throughout the journey, arriving in Huddersfield 7 minutes later than currently scheduled (arrival times at 1210, 1410, 1610 and 1810).
From Huddersfield:
- The 1038, 1238 and 1438 journeys will depart Huddersfield 7 minutes later than currently scheduled at 1045, 1245 and 1445. Extra running time between Grotton and Manchester with buses arriving at Manchester 14 minutes later than currently scheduled at 1237, 1437 and 1637.
The re-timing means that buses will depart Huddersfield evenly in between departures for the 183 and 185, however buses towards Huddersfield will run 3 minutes between 185 journeys. www.firstgroup.com/greater-manchester/plan-journey/timetables/?day=1&source_id=3&service=180/184&routeid=3040881&operator=11&source=sp

Changes to Squarepegs 22, New & Improved:Having taken a ride on the new 22 route today, It has been greatly improved to serve more places and operates longer making it useful to even commuters as well as shoppers. Route:From Seacroft Bus Station to Cross Gates, the route now runs via York Road to Killingbeck Roundabout before taking a sharp left onto Cross Gates Road into Cross Gates. The Route remains unchanged beyond there as far as Garforth. Beyond Garforth the route now runs via Selby Road, Leeds Road then via Kippax Cross Hills up to Great Preston Corner before taking a right and heads towards Swillington where it then takes a route via Church Lane/Swillington lane then as old route as far as Haigh Road where it enters Rothwell via Wood Lane. Times:The route now runs between 0645 and 1900 Mon-Fri and between 0800-1755 on Saturdays, vastly improving the convenience of the service. There is a 2hr gap at Rothwell between 1400-1600 (Mon-Fri) as one of the buses still does a school run before being put back in Service at Seacroft Timetable Here: squarepegbuses.co.uk/en/images/route22-brochure-jan16.pdfT638 EUB and a unknown other were on this today, the Volvo B6's aren't ready yet (DDA conversion?)

I caught the first bus out to Harrogate on Monday and the last one back. There were two of us on the first bus out (boarding at Utley and Steeton) - both of us them heading for the 36 to Ripon and the 142 to York. Coming back on the 1835 there was me and a chap going to Otley with no-one else picked up until Ilkey. Early days though and I suspect it's not the best time of year for this service.

I used the service between Otley and Ilkley this afternoon and they were around 15 people on after Ilkley and on the return around 25 from Otley which was more than I thought. There was also a decent amount of people boarding and alighting on the return although the X84 was only a few minutes behind so may have been a reason behind this. One thing I did notice was all buses heading to Harrogate were leaving Ilkley 10-15 minutes late, so they may want to look at adjusting the running time

A X52 passed me today; 2 passengers on board, the destination part of the display as I first saw the bus read Go Green and White, after a while it changed to The Original and Best and then it passed me without anything useful like its destination beimg shown. Not certain how running less journeys than the 762 makes it the "best".

Not certain how running less journeys than the 762 makes it the "best". Following the timetable change on Monday and the X52 running hourly, there is only about 2 fewer journeys on the X52 than there is on the 762. The X52 is timed to run 5 minutes in front of the 762, which in theory would give them first pick of passengers. 762From Harrogate: 0730, 0835 and every hourly until 1835 From Ilkley: 0630 and every hour until 1730 X52From Harrogate: 0830 and every hourly until 1630 then 1735 to Otley From Ilkley: 0725, 0925 and every hour until 1625

From that pic, no doubt it's dominated by free pass holders as per usual, with not much actual money being taken.
