156 was withdrawn a while ago wasn't it? No I saw 156 coming out of Ossett Bus Station at the end of last week, not sure if it was operating 102 or 119/120. 161 was in service in Wakefield yesterday

156 is still in service it was on the 444 this morning. Given that both 156 and 161 are still in service I wonder if there are problems with one of the other Belle Isle based MDP's or is ex Castleford 223 there to cover for a re-painting programme!!!!!!

The West Yorkshire Buses Website fleetlists have shown this bus as withdrawn since they were updated on 29/11/2009 but I took a photo of it in service on 5 December and posted this information back then on the Remaining roller blinds thread.

This is not an official Arriva fleetlist but built from a lot of our own sightings. I actually waited to let it (156) out of Ossett Bus Station last week and it was sighted agin by Nick Foster earlier this week. With the exception of 161 all the other elderly Darts have been withdrawn/scapped since October/November last year following the transfer of a number of the Castleford MPD back to Belle Isle

Laterly Belle Isle had 136/7/8(L136/7/128YVK), 140/3/6(L140YVK, L159BFT, L146YVK), 150/6/7/8(K601HWR, K320CVU, J465MKL, J466OKP) and 161(P326HVX) 136 to 146 were NC bodied 9.0 Darts while I think the rest were Plaxton bodied of a mix of 9.0 and 9.8 Darts
