1413 is being scrapped , 1412 is over the pits but think that is following its brother ! Scrapped? Why scrapped? Interesting move, I'm kinda shocked about that! Would prefer the tempos to leave before the commanders. Thought it might have gone back to Castleford or even Wakey perhaps Probably just reached the end of its natural lifespan? |

Going to miss them though, they was great buses always loved riding on them, enjoyed them when they turned up on my local routes over the tempos. All buses have to go some day though. How long is it for a bus into normal main operator service these days? Is it 15 years? As Transdev had some olympians that must have been 30 years old a few years ago knocking around. |

1621 and 1609 both on the 149 to Wakefield, 1075 on the 148 still in flying tiger livery, 1898 on TK1 and 1603 on the 149 to Knottingley with lots of fumes coming out of the exhaust. 1310 on the 148 and 1479 on the 410, Ross Travel Optare Versa was on the CL1. Plenty of Lowlanders around Pontefract today!

1611 and 1613 were both on the 110 today. Saw them both at the same time, one passed the other, one Leeds bound, one Wakefield bound. I thought I was in a timewarp.

Tickters can be temperemental. I wonder if they still have the manual emergency tickets for single fares. |

I know driver was telling anyone to buy daily and weekly tickets to buy it on another bus or their next bus and anyone with single fares he told them to sit down |
