I overheard a driver from Selby the other day mention that there is a good chance that Selby depot will be receiving some of the fleet from Heckmondwike at some point in the future - Does anyone have any further info?

Heckmondwike are getting Wakefield’s enviro 400’s ( sapphires ), freeing up the 58 plates they have, my guess is it could be these or the rest of the 06 plate lowlanders .

Im hoping for the 58 plates - however iv'e got a feeling that they'll just send the rest of the lowlanders over- hopefully not though

Chances are it maybe the 1100's, as they want to make Heckmondwike a mostly double deck depot, from what my mate tells me. Heckmondwike aren't due to get Wakefield's E400's until later this year, somewhere around Sept/Oct

The 58 plate e400s going to Selby wouldn't be a bad idea if it were to happen. Arriva could then move the lowlanders elsewhere out of the fleet

Looking at it logically once you replace the 268 fleet with the 110 fleet you'd keep the Geminis and allocate those to the 229, replacing the single decks on there. The E400s may well head North as ANE have some very elderly 2002/3 Geminis ex London on Max routes that would benefit from an upgrade. Not sure they could find a home for 14 of them though? There could be potential in sending a batch of B7RLEs north though - potentially for routes X26/27 or X66/67 that are still flogging 14 year old Scanias and costing rather a lot to keep on the road on quite demanding routes.

You'd hope that they might allocate some more deckers to Waterloo, as since the 233 changes, they promised more decker workings, but that doesn't seem to have come to fruition. With peak time journeys and heavy loads for Shelley College combining, some journeys overload the Tempos.

Even Yorkshire Tiger is getting treat better than Selby! Selby stuck with cast offs (1600's) meanwhile the old 268's are getting sent to tiger.... As if it wasnt already obvious that Selby was AY's poor relations.
Then you get the people that say that BI and Castleford dont get new vehicles!
