I reckon that the following will happen
60 gets its new aireline versas And K7 goes under the jets brand with the new solos And The K7 branded versas get repainted yellow and green into dalesway colours And The 66 goes back to every 20 mins again

Looks like Vamooz is now taking on school services for september. This has been posted on facebook by The Harrogate Bus Company, Getting ready for the next school year? (Sorry to mention it!) We are running 3 VAMOOZ school buses for St Aidan's and St John Fisher's in Harrogate using modern vehicles, dedicated drivers and free wifi. What's more, with our passes, you can use them on The Harrogate Bus Company and other Transdev buses 7 days a week, early until late! The routes are: V32 - from Jennyfield & Bilton V36 - from Ripon V70 - from Clifford, Boston Spa, Thorp Arch, Wetherby & Spofforth More info on the VAMOOZ app free from the App Store or Google Play - where you can buy your tickets too! The only problem is that, were transdev at the open evening letting the kids know about the buses ? i only know connexions were there due to them posting it on their Twitter but I'm unsure if transdev were there or not.

Caught a glimpse of a First hybrid Gemini 2 on the 12 heading for Middleton from the WRC this afternoon. Is this unusual? 39231 was on the 1 around 10:00 on Saturday (yesterday)

Would love to know how many people from outside the area use the Airport buses on their arrival in the UK. I doubt its thay many. Someone from Ireland knew what he was doing yesterday he got straight off 737 and straight onto my 571 with a tiger day ticket and everything

What no-one has discussed is what's happening the the 254/255 B7RLE buses as I don't think they're coming to tiger That's a good point as everyone seems to have forgotten that the 254/255 isn't entirely double deck at the moment. Assuming Heckmondwike's new double decks will be replacing double decks, then the B7RLEs will have to replace the non-MAX non-254/255 Gemini's at Heckmondwike, on the 220/221/222 etc. Well they could well be for 220/221/222 next but some still have mostly sandstone front ends 1103/4/6/9/10 and 1112

This was the latest mid last week but things are changing daily. All the Tempos are leaving (50/50 split between Tiger and ANE) and I believe some if not all of the 52 Lowlanders are stopping (again some were supposedly off to Tiger). There was also rumours of several Spectras stopping (709 and 716 are two possibles because of a substantial amount of money recently spent on their engines and/or gearboxes). 443's are not interworked with the 444 but some are (443's) interworked worked with 147/446/481's. Some 444's work all the way through to Hall Green especially at peak times. Penfold From what I have been told this morning ALL the Spectras are to be withdrawn and 'passed on'. Non will be kept. Any that have failed mechanically will be repaired for their 'new owners'. The 52 plate Lowlanders will enter the pool fleet and will be available for event hire, accident repair stand ins, general vehicle shortage etc. All the Hybrids are expected to be in service (from BI) by the end of this week and as soon as Heckmondwike's new vehicles arrive and enter the fleet the Geminis' will also be released to BI. Obviously this is subject to any change yet again ! Penfold What no-one has discussed is what's happening the the 254/255 B7RLE buses as I don't think they're coming to tiger

I like the idea of rerouting the 97 away from Headingley centre as that may improve reliabilty. As for the X84, i presume they mean an extra bus added to the PVR rather than an increase in frequency? I think 1 journey going via Pool is a good idea though. It'll be a test which bus does better up pool bank flying tigers E200MMC or first Leeds E400MMC

At the back 1811 has a light blue panel around the lights on the right hand side which looks very odd

Do we know what buses are leaving the fleet when the new arrivals arrive? Not sure but 1100-1112 could go onto 220/1/2/3 because you do see them on there daily
