Congratulations to Keighley Bus Company for reacting to passenger demand and putting-on dupes for the Haworth 1940s weekend just past.
I travelled from Keighley to Hebden Bridge on the now renumbered "B3" yesterday, and planned to catch the 1305 departure from Keighley. At about 1255, a single-deck dupe for Haworth came onto the stand and left almost full. This meant the 1305 service bus was almost empty. Frabjous joy - it was a decker, and I enjoyed a fascinating ride from the top deck over the moors into Calderdale.
Do they usually put dds on to this route, and are there any plans to do so during the summer months?
Incidentally, may I record my admiration to the drivers and they way they handled their vehicles through places like Oxenhope and the approach to Hebden Bridge itself? I was greatly impressed.

I was out there yesterday, normally they put B7RLE's on it, but 2708, 402 & 403 were out on it yesterday. I was stood at the top of oxenhope when a packed B7RLE came past, followed a minute later by Gemini 403. Weird that they were running together.

I can't comment for this year, however when I travelled with them last Summer it was nothing but Streetlites for me. They were fairly busy but there wasn't anyone standing whilst I was travelling with them.
