Apparently from today the 175 from Moorhouse/Bottomboat to Outwood Grange Academy was duplicated in the morning peak, but not by Arriva as is the case with the afternoon duplicate, but by Squarepeg. I didn’t see anything this morning though. Something to keep an eye out for.

Saw First Leeds 37502 in Morley looks like it was getting attention off the fitters, as there was a First Leeds Maintenance Van parked in front of it.
Saw a First Park and Ride Streetdeck in Morley, think it was a 46/47. I dont know if they are common on these routes.

Yes, PR2 Vehicles are appearing on anything with 46/47, 62, 85, X84 & X98/X99 been the main Favs to find them on whilst Temple Newsam P&R is used for Covid testing.

I didn’t see anything this morning though. Something to keep an eye out for. To quote my own post, Squarepeg did indeed run a duplicate 175 this morning, the vehicle was DK60 AHL. The destination display said “School Bus”, and a 175 label was inside the windscreen.

Not sure if there was a shortage of smaller vehicles in Keighley yesterday, but within a very short space of time yesterday morning saw 1077 on the K5, the B7RLE with the face mask on the K6 and POTN 1825 on the K7.

Could be as bustimes should that MPD 720 allegedly did Sunday's 873/884 Dalesbus duty.

Unusual swap in the Transdev York fleet today.
Pride of the North branded Wright Eclipse 2 1867 has made an extremely rare appearance on the A3 while Pride of the North branded Optare Versa 293 is taking it's place on the 784.
Not sure why this swap has been made, but it's certainly interesting.

Well it makes sense to try the Eclipses on the Flyer routes to assess suitability as the POTN ones are essentially spare/pool vehicles so they need to see how they can be used on the routes.

Had 2 rides on 795 on 187 today. Not usual buses, they usually on 167/168. I really enjoyed my rides on 795, great bus to ride on and it was comfy, much much better than the tempos they replaced at Castleford.

Dalesbus operations for 15/05/2021: HBC 804 on 59 I thought that the 59 was going to be on doubles and that it wasn't due to start until Saturday next?
