Stagecoach had ALX300 22445 on 59 Terrible buses those ALX 300's especially for those who are really tall, in fact any single decker bus Stagecoach Barnsley has is terrible. Seems Stagecoach likes to cram as many seats as possible in which means if it's busy it's going to be really uncomfortable.

They can only hold around 21 passengers at the minute. As a tall person i've travelled on ALX300s before and only place where its not good to sit if tall is the seats over the back wheels same as ALX200s, Dart pointers and "classic" Solos.

Has Arriva max 229 been upgraded to Sapphire cos the last few days every bus including the Heckspress has been a Sapphire vehicle in both old and new livery. They have also got the next stop announcement set up and fully working.

The Heckspress eclipses have had branding removed so are on any route including old stomping ground 254/255

Looks like 3050 spent all day on the 415's. That could be fun with the people going to the Designer Outlet.

That could be fun with the people going to the Designer Outlet. if you are going of Bustimes you'll actually see that that board also does the 476 short Selby circulars as 3051 also did that route as well and 405 short circulars. 3052 & 3053 have both done 64 & 493 today. 1409 is the one to have done 415 solely today.

Well most of the day on 415s then but it looks like it got swapped with 1409 afterwards. I think you got 3051s working and 3052 workings the wrong way round haven't you lol, unless I read it wrong?

Due to its insufficient steering lock several shunts had to be put in around various corners ! Penfold

Although I think it only operated one duty late in the day? On a similar note I saw on Bus Times that apparently 1940 did a couple of circuits of the 103 today but I didn’t see it personally

I saw 1018 as I went out looking for “1940” (if it was that and not a false alarm). Felt a bit disappointed when 1018 came round the corner :-D

Other wise that swap probably wouldn't have happened
