What’s the plan with the 16xx (YJ06) batch of vehicles, not forgetting 1621 (ex Arriva Midlands)?
They’re all looking a bit tired now (certainly the ones I see around Wakefield and Leeds), and a couple appear to be out of use, eg 1606, 1613.
Will they be refurbished/repainted, or are they on borrowed time?

1601 & 1602 are with Tiger. 1606 & 1607 are still in use at belle isle with 1621 still occasionally in use. 1603 & 1604 are still at Hecky and 1610 is with Tiger Elland.

Are any being used as spares for 723 or something? I hope the lowlanders go next, I hate the things personally. Hate them |

According to Bus Times (and I know it’s not wholly accurate):
1604 not used since 4th March
1606 appears to be completely out of use
1613 not used since 27th Feb
I see 1601/02 are with Yorkshire Tiger.
1605 appears to have been withdrawn (when?)
Finally what about 1600? (YJ06 WLX)

Finally what about 1600? (YJ06 WLX) 1606 was on layover in Wakey yesterday. 1605 was withdrawn when it was at Castleford. 1600 is a good question as i've not seen that in a very long time. |
