Travel Xpress of Baildon have seen their depot flooded with the offices and garage destroyed. Two vehicles have also been lost. See @ctsbus on Twitter Arrow Coach Travel of Brighouse have also had their depot flooded. I assume the one washed down stream was a minibus!

Was the Tiger depot at Leeds flooded? I assume there must have been some flooding as it's near the river and just off Kirkstall Road. Not a good Christmas for Tiger.

Whenever I have had a look in when passing the vehicles haven't been lined up like that. They are usually all parked straight as per the left hand vehicles in the photo.

West Riding had a depot in Featherstone, Wakefield Saville St next to the old bus station & the old South Yorkshire depot at Pontefract.
Yorkshire Woollen had the depot / works at the end of the road from the current Dewsbury depot.
WYRCC had a depot in Ilkley.

There was a depot at frost hill in heckmondwike this is now a carpet warehoude next to the gulf garage and flush snooker club. The original depot at frost hill was demolished a couple of years ago and replaced by some more modern units I remember when I was at junior school the National Holidays coaches from Frost Hill used to take us to Spen swimming baths!

Is this not going to just take passengers off the Coastliner services?

It's from Halloween, when one of the female drivers, decorated the bus and went out in service with it Ah thanks for that.

Enviro 1914 passed me this evening & I noticed it had a black cat on the rear downstairs window! As in some kind of window sticker rather than a real one. It was quite a large one in a kind of stretched position standing up.
Anyone know what that's about?

Not good on a 65 reg bus if the brakes have failed.
Improvement to the front end design though.

Are the zest livery ones getting any branding or just orange fronts? They are now branded. Had them for a couple weeks now. See my pic of Flickr flic.kr/p/AWSm4vSent from my GT-I9505 using proboards Thanks. They just had the orange fronts when I was last in Halifax.

Just be done with it and get rid of the costly pieces of cr*p. Spending money keeping them on the road is throwing good money after bad. They shouldn't have wasted money doing them up for the 72.

Shame that they are going to be ugly street decks. E400MMC would have looked better in 36 livery. TBH anything would have looked better at the front end. Perhaps they won't look as bad in the 36 livery as they do in some others. The FSY X78 ones don't look too bad in the new livery.

Nikon are good cameras, I've used them for years. I would think most cameras in the price range your looking at should be suitable for what you want. The Nikon ones have a dial in the top with the settings on, the running man being the moving image one. Cannon are also a good brand. You may get an entry level DSLR camera for under £300 with all the sales that will be going on up to Christmas.

There is about 10 BMC's parked in Huddersfield bus station ready to run school services tomorrow, wouldn't surprise me if these appear in service at some point tomorrow. Saw them leaving the depot & heading up Leeds Rd about 4pm. I assumed they were being moved so the drivers didn't have to cross the picket line tomorrow, like they did with the Bradford ones when they were on strike.

Doesn't look too bad. Looks a bit like old Coastliner livery. Don't like the bodywork design, looks ugly, not as good as the Gemini or E400MMC. Although the bodywork looks better in this livery than some of the others it has appeared in.
