Not West Yorkshire related this post, sorry about that guys, but just spent a week on the East Coast down at Ingoldmells and saw aii the Stagecoach open-toppers there. Just was wondering if anyone on here in the know could provide me with the previous histories of these vehicles. Guess the E400's started life down in London, but unsure about the Gemini's. TIA The E400 was new to Stagecoach Highlands, and was driven under a low bridge by a driver who took the bus, despite it being wrongly allocated, and was supposedly on his phone at the time of the incident www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/bus-driver-who-crashed-bridge-6808215

Not much else I know other than that. Funny you should say that as I was wondering the same thing last month when I went there

Just spotted Transdev President 2701 in south York. Destination showed "the Keighley bus company" from a distance I just saw the "Keighley" and thought it was a 60 (what I'm used to seeing as live on the route) gone twenty odd miles off course!

Yesterdays Sightings whilst working in and around Wakefield for the day:
Arriva Free Bus Solo 3042 was on 104 in mid afternoon which then broke down and got replaced by 111 branded 3044 which was taken off 111, which in turn was replaced on that service by resurrected Spectra 710.
