A B9TL darwen was on 444 going to barnsley. 31760 on 12, I boarded 31765 unilink livery on number 2 and the strangest misallocation on tuesday 10th june aorund 7:30pm 69333 was on 49 towards monkswood gate. Looked weird with all that branding for 35/45/47/71/x35.
32471 YJ04FZX on the 88 this afternoon a scania wright was on the 56 and a suprise was a 68A going down the buslane between romart/kwiksave (white horse) and the dog and gun, luckily the driver pulled out @ the junction with the fire station
And finally to all those people that wrote this team off, to all those that criticised this team tonight is for you - Sir Kevin Sinfield. 8/10/11.
A real mixture on the Red/Blue Lines yesterday... Ex-Black Prince Scania East Lancs Flyte on the 13/13A, Dennis Dart Alexander Dash M204 but didn't catch route number, and a Strider on the 12!
Not really a misallocation, but when I was coming home today along the A650 from Wakefield to Bradford, just before Kirklees, I past a yard with a wrecked First single decker parked in it. It looked like either a Alexander Strider or a SLF Dart. I couldn't tell because I didn't get a good look at it, and the whole front end was smashed. The yard could have been a small scrap yard or haulage yard, as there where trucks parked in there. Does anybody know the identity of this bus?

Today Arriva Yorkshire, a Green Line (126 & 127) was on the 1200 496 to Doncaster also a Blue Line (495 & 496) was on the 425 & 427. An old Plaxton Pointer was on the 485 at 1145 I was amazed when I saw it.
Except that Arriva do not use coloured lines for their services. They are branded as "Connecting...", hence the branding for the same. So let's just call them by their service numbers.

Could it have been a Dash bodied Dart?
Cos one was written off a while ago in a fatal head on crash near Otley
Derek Conway: "Look, you won't miss anything.In my experience, all the excitement of a stag night happens at the end, when you get the groom naked, handcuff him to a lamppost and shove a truncheon up his..."

I saw the bus again, and you're right it is a Dart Dash. I didn't see a fleet number on it though.
Today I saw Volvo B10B 60797 in Huddersfield, heading up Manchester Road towards Huddersfield bus station. I was behind it, so couldn't tell what service it was on.
Seen this morning where 32471 YJ04FZX Wright Eclipse and 30240 S656NUG Alexander Royale on the 73.
Also, the 670 seems to be getting some newer buses on it recently, today I saw a B7TL Gemini and 30912 X767VUA ALX400 on it. Makes a change from the usual Northern Counties Olympian.
