How did leeds get morning service on 232 it seems an odd working? They've had it years. Goes onto some morning trips on the Dewsbury Road group of services. Not sure now as I transferred to another First depot a year ago. |

Yh it still runs usually by dedicated drivers as its called the Flockton flyer then goes straight to white Rose to pick up dewsbury rd services |

Does it start from Huddersfield running private from Leeds?

The service operates nights with First Huddersfield, then in the morning operated on First Leeds buses starting from Huddersfield at 5:45am and one Wakefield 232 service at 6:15, as well as one that begins in Flockton at 6:00. These services will most likely have buses positioning across.

They got the tender for it somewhere around 2013-15 area, maybe even before them.

Do Leeds Hunslet Park still run some early morning trips on the 232, does anyone know? I still think so, I’m sure the Hunslet green streetdecks have still been on the morning runs. Though someone that lives nearer to Hudds or Wakey is best confirming. |

The Leeds duty used to come past where I live just after 8.00 and I notice that the current timetable dated August has that run as Tiger operated so it's probably finished, I'll have a look & see what turns up Monday. Huddersfield still do their morning runs. |

It was the 6:35 from Huddersfield that they ran. It’s still showing as run by First but strangely Yorkshire Tiger run a journey at roughly the same time as well

Not shown on the Leeds running boards, but shown on the First Huddersfield timetables dated 6 September, so possibly run by Huddersfield now.

The 0635 was still a First Leeds vehicle, a couple of weeks ago, and if there had been a change to the timetable recently, Metro would've had a current most recent timetable on their website.

They didn't have recent changes to some Transdev times for more than a week after the changes despite my complaining. |

Now that bustimes.org has tracked FWY buses that early in the morning, I can now confirm that the answer is no. First Leeds no longer run those trips on the 232
The 0558 from Flockton and 0635 from Huddersfield are now run by Huddersfield, the bus then runs dead back to Hudds, does a trip on the NC shuttle, and then drops onto the 370. So will presumably now be allocated an HD Connect blue fronted Gemini
