Also forgot Alexander Strider was on the 940 but later replaced with a plaxton beaver 2!

Nothing new about illuminated advertisment boards London had them on Routemasters in the 60s and some of the Bradford fleetline/atlantean batch of 2401-2470 were fitted with them in the 70s and 80s

Was complete chaos in Keighley this afternoon, many services either more than 30 minutes late or cancelled completely leading to lenghty queues and some unusual workings, including B7 1844 and B10 1048 on 703, B7 450 on 66/762 and UID Olympian on 760

Yesterday First Bradford Royale 30817 on the 612 was followed through Thackley by 30815 on the 610. This morning 31677 is on the 612.
Also yesterday morning I was surprised by Transdev York 274 passing through Greengates heading towards Shipley. Destination read not in service, presume on this road it was maybe headed for Keighley. Loan, transfer or repaint to new Trandev York colours? Anyone know anything?

Yer excessive traffic along Boar Lane right through to the bus station because of all those christmas car shoppers who think the market car park is mecca! The same happens year after year but the council don't think to make the roads within Leeds bus only and force car drivers to take the inner ring road towards Woodhouse Moor where Hyde Park could be flattened and the whole area on both sides of Hyde Park could made into one giant car park served by park and ride. But let's not dwell on this depressing subject, back to unusual sightings
