Yes hence why the fleetnumbers and reg numbers are listed That doesn't necessarily mean they've been delivered, fleet numbers and reg numbers are often known well ahead of delivery. Bramley have all but 35618 & 35624 in service, anyone know when Hunslet's are going to get their tyres wet? Edit - 35618 is out today.

All of Bramleys batch are now in service and the first of Hunslet's has now been prepared for service per Facebook. We may not be in Manchester but it can still rain in Yorkshire any time, no matter what the weather forecast says, we had snow last month!!

Are the grey fronted Streetdecks supposed to be for a certain service, as they seem to appear at random mixed with green ones across the 4, 15, 16, 42, 49 & 50/50A

It wouldn’t surprise me if at some stage they repainted all the fronts green, as the colours seem to make no sense.
All the colours don’t seem to tie up to any PVR, there seems to be either too many or not enough, some major corridors that you’d think would justify a colour aren’t getting one (such as the hybrids on Scott Hall Road just getting the generic greeen) and none of the colours tie up to the Connecting Leeds map, and indeed can’t ever do, due to most services being cross city so therefore serving two corridors.

I received my copy of British Bus Publishing's First Bus Handbook 2021 this week and the batch of 91 StreetDecks (35638 - 35728) that were shown in the 2020 book as being due to be delivered in 2020 are not listed in the new 2021 book. Does that mean that the order for the 91 additional StreetDecks has been cancelled or has the ordered been delayed because of COVID especially as the introduction of the Leeds LEZ has been cancelled / postponed?

Does that mean that the order for the 91 additional StreetDecks has been cancelled or has the ordered been delayed because of COVID especially as the introduction of the Leeds LEZ has been cancelled / postponed? I wonder whether subsequent news of the Bradford CAZ will lead to this order being reactivated. Then if First still prefer more modern buses in Leeds they could allocate these buses to Leeds depots and early StreetDecks to Bradford for example. Ironically, I have the route 72 batch in mind as an example. Other Volvo B9TLs in Leeds could replace other Volvo B7TLs within First West Yorkshire generally.

Do Volvo at Birstall still maintain the fleet at First Bradford?
I was wondering if the new vehicles might turn up there first.

Anyone heard when First Bradford's new buses are due? It seems that some of their B7RLE's are due to move to South Yorkshire, I heard 69566-77 reported, where some of their MMC's have already moved on to the Potteries as part of related movements.
With the Bradford CAZ now put back to March 2022 instead of January I expect it's now not so urgent but I imagine Sheffield will still need something straight away.
