It seems that the allocater cant get his or hers head round putting 9TL, ALX400 and i think it is 7TL on to the 2/12/3/13 combination.
They always seem to have an Olympian and Roayle on the 2-13 combination all day everyday now.

on Last Thursday spotted Holmfirth connection Volvo Olympians on other routes. As I saw one on 302 to Golcar and another along Manhcester Road on 183 to Marsden. Just thought if they rebranded them Golcar connection sounds funny lol. Marsden/Slaithwaite connection would sound ace , but this could just be done easily by making Transpennine express stop there.

As these routes are now based at hunslet park,which unlike cherry row does not have 100% low floor fleet,unfortunately step entrance buses will be a common occurrance in future

Arriva Wright Eclipse 1101 was on the 256 and it seems First Bradford has decided on using low-floor buses on the 670 on Saturday as I noticed 30915 on it while B9TL 37093 was on the 610 to Shipley.

First Bradford now regard the 670 as a low floor accessible service, their website now advertises it as such. However, recent sightings seem to point to the usual couldn't care less attitude with B7TL's mixed among G reg Olympians.

In the light of Arriva DAF/Optare Spectras generally operating on the 268 and given that the new Volvos work the 254/255 routes, then these must be incorrect allocations: Spectra 722 on the 254 about to finish in Heckmondwike at 1820 this evening and DAF 461 on the short working of the 268 to Cleckheaton ready to depart Heckmondwike at 1818.

Lance 824 was on the 268 to Bradford last night. Also saw one of the 254/5 liveried buses on the 227. Think I've seen one on every Heckmondwike route now!

First Leeds 64808 (P818 AWT) Scania/ E Lancs Flyte (ex Black Prince) was on the 1345 X84 Skipton-Leeds today. Not seen it on that route before, so I assume this to be an "odd" allocation.

Post by jackh on Aug 20, 2008 16:39:10 GMT 1
The X84 gets either Scania SDs or Olympians allocated to the route so can't really be classified as a misallocation.

A Darwen Olympus was on the 117 this evening, they are becoming quite regular on this route.

Some form of ID for the bus would be helpful please...
Well it could be one of the companies that Geldards has subcontracted onto the Leeds Festival Shuttle.
