Also in having the K-Line sticker on the front of the Pulsar it does make it easier to identify who its working for since First work the same route with similar looking buses. The small logo on the front of the Pulsar is for customer identification. In addition to First running on the route. The earstwhile infamous 'Route 1' used allover white buses!

Has anyone seen either YG52DFX or MX06BTE recently? Both seem to have not been around whenever I have been in Huddersfield lately.

Do K-Line still have the BMC Falcon?
I haven't seen it for ages and one of the DAF/NC Paladin's now seems to be used in service regularly.

It is in the garage for some major engine work, possibly replacement.

They have the engine out of it, Cummins have told them that they have to buy a permit to ask for the torque settings to tighten the cylinder head down

Yes I meant Brake & the Voith retarders sound good, I know quite a few people that like it. I'd say the Commanders have a better Voith retarder than any other bus, Metrobus' sound good but you can only get it on a few.

Had a bit of a surprise this morning. I saw ex-W/D Solo 326? S626 JRU on K-Line service 301/2 Golcar. I was under the impression that this bus was in centrebus livery and based at Elland to operate former HJC services. But when i saw it, it was in K-Line livery, judging by the cleanliness it looked like a recent repaint, hence maybe a recent transfer. Does anyone know how many more (if any) of these ex-W/D Solos K-Line have?.

It was never at Centrebus, it entered service with K-Line in K-Line livery in the same week as all the other ones in the same batch entered service in Elland.
They only have this one which went to K-Line because they run the ex-HJC 31 service.

Thanks for the response, I assumed this bus was at Elland, Along with the rest because thats how it was reported on the fleet news update on west yorkshire buses website 31oct 10.
