First's 36222 has a full size fleet number positioned under the windscreen nearside as well as the small one above it. I noticed Arriva's 1409 on the 444 with similar bus 1415 on the 209; the latter has the darker blue positioned lower on the bus, level with the bottom of the door, yet 1409's was under the headlights. When you see buses separately how many of us notice these little differences? Today the 254 had 268 branded Enviro 1904 running on it, with 254/255 branded Volvo 1108 on the 268! 69481 got a large fleet number on the front over the nearside headlight, noticed on Flickr some Manchester Geminis in new livery also have large numbers as well As for noticing little differences I can remember a few from Yorkshire Rider days Olympians 5043 & 5119 had a cream band under the windscreen, 5113 rear fleetnumber was on the nearside corner above the air intake all the others were on the offside, 5129 I think had a red Leyland badge, 5142 had no smoking stickers in the middle of the upper front windows well before others had them applied,some of the 5200-5222 batch had smaller fleetnumbers than others and 5082-5096,5100-5106,5501-5516 and possibly others had hopper instead of sliding windows.

First South Yorkshire 53034 Shipley bound on Canal Rd this morning at 6.50, transfer/loan to First Bradford or heading somewhere further? As Bradford only use Solo's on the 630 & 846/847 it doesn't appear to fit in with an early morning positioning run as the first 846 out of Shipley should arrive in Shipley in service from Kings Rd/Queens Rd as the first 846 arrival of the day at 7.00. Answering my own questions here, 53034 was indeed heading for Shipley to work the 7.09 846 so presumably there was a problem with the first service of the day. I caught up with this bus in Bradford at lunchtime although I was almost caught out by the real time information readout on Sunbridge Road which showed the service as cancelled. www.flickr.com/photos/35759580@N03/14072268661/

I had 36189 on the 42, which was ran NIS to Headrow then duplicated the 42 in front.

Usually some spotters around Halifax like to stage them! Because they have HELEN Programmers to compare them too

Ive seen a 33 B9TL bus misprogram into "1 holt park" before changing to Not in Service. Ive seen an ALX400 at Seacroft accidentally change to 3 Brackenwood, before correctly changing to 50 Horsforth.
