Apparently there was a single decker on the 166 today, really strange to see this happen, as there would be lots of doubles available if a double broke down on that route, considering it's still a Sunday timetable today

Most of the branded doubles were on other routes including the 411 and the Fryston runs.

By the looks of it, 1471 wasn't on a dupe, as it's still out right now on an evening diagram, so I presume it wasnt a dupe.

Not a good day for breakdowns at Belle Isle, 1815 sat several hours near Wilkos in Wakefield 1807 at Crofton with gearbox issues The YT Flying Tiger Versa currently used at BI on the staff shuttle with overheating and oil leaks All I believe required towing in

Whether the bus keeps breaking down who knows, but it doesn't look very reliable from the face of it.

Wasn't it 1412 that was involved in the crash when on the 167 or 168 towards the end of last year?

I am pretty sure it was 1412 that was involved in the crash, I think it was out for a month wasn't it, and I have a feeling 1412 broke down this morning on the 188. But lately most times 1412 has been out, it's been swapped for something else, didn't even last an hour at one time last week on the Doncasters it got swapped at Doncaster for another commander.

If it was 1412 then that explains the performance issues since

Something I've seen today for the first time how long have Arriva been displaying face coverings must be worn and exact fares only on buses destination blinds? I saw it displayed on one of the tempos and one of the pulsars? Never seen it before

Its been programmed since beginning of last week. Penfold

Coming out of Skipton just after 3 today i saw:
A NYCC Mercedes Sprinter minibus heading towards Kildwick (but i don't think it was on the 78A as it didn't turn down towards Cononley)
A Jacksons Solo being towed backwards towards Skipton (don't know if it went into Skipton itself, or onto the bypass)
