Yes it does. We always used to take deckers or full sizes buses down there when we used to do (the old) 108/9 to Bottomboat and Moorhouse. Mind parked cars wernt as much as a problem as they are now and neither were the trees so overgrown. Penfold 445 at Bottomboat on a 108 flic.kr/p/bZA3AGI know some people say that ALX200s & ALX300s were rubbish but at least they could/can easily navigate the estates the same for the 2 Ikarus Polaris Arriva had.

1811 was heading to St Wilfrids going past New College Pontefract. Saw 1004 (I believe) also heading to North Featherstone. Unsure why though?
Edit: It is 1007 it looks similar to 1004

Unidentified Leeds City Streetdeck wearing illuminated advertising boards. Was not in service while passing Cardigan Fields on Kirkstall Rd this morning at about 6.45.
Possibly headed for the 7.17 33 departure from Guiseley or the 7.07 27 from Guiseley but just as likely a school service positioning run, do Leeds have any decker school services? Looked to be a green top but in the dark could have been blue, anyone know which one it is?

Apparently 791 has entered service at Castleford according to Bustimes. Did an X60 this morning and should spend all day on 168s. Can anyone please confirm this?

Now this really is rare, today there was a single decker (unidentified) working the Scott Hall Road 7 routes, saw it twice. Must have been around 10 years since the last single decker worked them routes.

Thanks, that makes sense as 35595 operated the 07.09 34 from Otley which looks like it runs dead to Otley before service. Bus times shows it leaving the depot at 6.27 so the timing would be right for when I saw it on Kirkstall Rd.

1608 and 1016 on the 147 this morning to New College as 1016 as dupe. 1008 was on the 476 to St Wilfrids. YJ54 CEF returning to Ross Travel depot. Believe it did a New College service.
