I did a full long of Heckmondwike's services during the off peak period last Thursday, I hope the following is of interest...
SERVICE 209 Leeds to Heckmondwike (2 Buses)
696, 1545*
* This allocation which is probably unusual resulted in Gemini 2 DL 1545 operating the afternoon 649 Spen Valley High School service!
SERVICE 212 Dewsbury to Wakefield (2 Buses)
694, 1604
SERVICES 220/221/222 Leeds to Huddersfield/Mirfield/Heckmondwike (12 Buses)
462, 464, 653, 656, 693, 695, 1454, 1455, 1600, 1601, 1611, 1905
SERVICE 229 Leeds to Huddersfield (7 Buses)
1536, 1537, 1539, 1540, 1541, 1542, 1543
SERVICE 254 Leeds to Wakefield via Cleckheaton (7 Buses)
472*, 1100, 1102, 1105, 1547, 1603. 1904
* this was a changeover for 1104 which had broken down.
SERVICE 255 Leeds to Halifax (5 Buses)
1101, 1544, 1546, 1602, 1613
SERVICE 256 Bradford to Brighouse via Cleckheaton (2 Buses)
1605, 1607
SERVICE 268 Bradford to Dewsbury (12 Buses)
1608, 1612, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1907, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911, 1912, 1913
As can be seen, the fleet transfers are pretty much complete at Heckmondwike besides a few ALX300s still being there. Optare Spectra 722 is also still at Heckmondwike but it is thought to be the only one. Gemini 2 DL 1548 still hasn't arrived. Almost all the ex-Dewsbury East Lancs Lowlanders were seen in service and as can be seen they are everywhere.

Very interesting, I didn't realise the 220-3 routes required so many buses. Also didn't realise Heckmondwike covered 2 boards on the 212 service
