Sorry I’m lost The reason the K90 is shown is because it is on the same registration as a public route The reason the others aren’t shown is because they are on stand alone registrations, it doesn’t mean Team Pennine won’t be running them when September comes But it won't be running when the college is closed. No, of course it won't. I don't understand why you would think otherwise.

That seems to have been corrected. The incorrect times are still showing on other sites such as bustimes.org/services/k90-highburton-to-shelley

Looks as though 1211 KUI 9268 has transfered already to Rosso on service R3 a former Yorkshire Tiger vehicle.

Transdev teasing service improvements in the Kirkheaton area from 5 September. Alex Hornby also mentioning about some of the current Tempos from Yorkshire Tiger being refurbished for a new-look, relaunched route in September. Possibly both connected.

Team Pennine have got of to a brilliant start today but there's been a few negative bemoaners trying to knock them. It's also transparent Arriva, First & Tiger have not been promoting the changes for 231/232 that also happened today.

Not true that Arriva are not promoting the 231/232. Full details were in a comprehensive booklet featuring all their changes and including detailed diagrams of the 231/232 routes.

Ah, it all suddenly makes sense, Arriva put out a VERY EARLY tweet proclaiming they are listening to Kirkheaton passengers and increasing the 261 frequency. Then Team Pennine come along with a similar message. Who'd have thought this small area of Huddersfield would have a bus war lol.

It’s happened before not that long ago, when First extended the 371 up there and Tiger (actually probably Huddersfield Bus Company at that point) had the 262 and 261 running every 15 minutes combined

According to an article in RouteOne, which quotes Alex Hornby extensively: "members of the West Yorkshire Bus Alliance ... have a 'mature relationship'. With franchising in the region having been raised ... the focus is now firmly on proving what partnership can achieve". So I reckon we might see a bit of co-ordination going on.

My guess is the Transdev service will be an express, rather than exactly duplicating the 261.

So looking at the Article the Holmfirth-Wakey group is next for a refurb with 3 of the tempos. It also looks like there could also be e200MMCs due too. The discussions with South Pennine is to introduce joint ticketing similar to what South Pennine have launced with CT Plus & Powells which is a good idea as they operate together in same areas.

Good to see the Optare Spectra (2201 in its new guise) operating on all day service in Halifax yesterday. Although I was not a great a fan of these buses when new, I have now become interested in this vehicle, as it has become a very rare bus indeed which is still operating. I was wondering how many more Spectras were still in stage carriage service in the UK? I do hope Team Pennine keep it a bit longer to allow enthusiasts to experience it running around Halifax.

Posted a few days ago. It's brilliant to see these solos getting refurbished and the TLC these buses deserves. Brilliant Job Alex and the team. Cannot wait to see these solos refurbished! According to WYIS.org.uk, the two solos and a Tempo have gone to Thorntons.

Should put the deckers on 502 Halifax-Keighley

According to WYIS.org.uk, the two solos and a Tempo have gone to Thorntons. I'd say that's pretty nailed on as that's a Thorntons low-loader in the picture. Also, Alex Hornby's earlier tweet about the Tempos confirmed it:
