1550 has been on 212 today but was never branded for a Dewsbury route but i can confirm its had its old X12 branding removed. 1515 (126/127 branded) was on the route today and fully branded. It could have been 1523 which is in the old Max Spare branding O yeah , it’s was probably 1550 ( forgot about that ) defo not 1523 as I could see old branding on the back- it turned off into hospital before I could see the reg , so yeah , probably 1550

Not entirely sure that this is out of the blue for a vehicle to have not been seen for a couple of weeks. There are many AY vehicles that havent seen service since the beginning of March - Due to the current situation

I believe Spectra 723 has a new rear advert for Arnold Clark motors.

Interesting to see a Versa has joined, as the closest thing Castleford have to them is the Tempos. Is it just one that's joining?

Think Selby were due to give 403 to Cas anyway in exchange for 408/409. Might be easier to interwork it at Leeds than Selby.

Gonna be interesting too see if this 164 interworks with anything or what are they gonna do driver changes? Leeds Bus Station?

Can imagine Versas will be seen on 167/168 occasionally too. Wonder if E200MMCs will go to Selby for 1/2/3/408/409.

If the tempos move, I wonder what wiill be used on the 187

Would imagine it'll be all 5, or possibly 7 if the two X58's come too? E200's are rumoured to be heading to North East.

They are closing down the whole Bradford depot so may swap around some solos and versas and move some over here. I would understand if Selby move over some doubles as I can't imagine them using doubles on the Doncaster runs much longer, they could possibly go onto 410/411 if they are CAZ compliant (unlikely), or maybe onto 187/188.

I can't see the lowlanders staying at Selby unless they are used on the Doncasters, 400/401 and 476 routes and the local Selby routes 1-3 & 5. Also for driver changes on 164 they may take place at Garforth as the 163 & 166 run that way frequently

Good riddance to the E200's I hate those little things, awful awful, awful rattle buses. I hate if that happens

How about the commanders? Castleford have 4 of them as well, if the Doncasters do go over to Selby, the 187 can go to commanders full time then, as 187 will only need 3 diagrams won't they if it worked stand alone from Pontefract? 3 of them plus 1 spare.

They wont be on 410/411 soon nor 167/168 and 163/166 and 189 when Leeds CAZ starts.

The frystons are being used by the 200s at the moment during the day,

The E200 MMC’s are now supposed to be joining the Wakefield fleet , this will probably see the disposal of the 56 reg singles
