Considering Castleford can't reliably run what they've got with driver shortages I'm not sure the logic of them picking up more work! 21/22 is a fair bit of dead mileage, unless they can somehow interwork it with the 164 at the Garforth end (or run empty to/from Leeds to link in with the X60). A very odd choice of route for them to pick up for sure. I got told that castleford will take over wakefield 147 as well . Could it be they have found more driver from some where? wonder if Cas are going to be helping on the Sunday 147As as they did that with 157 (current 147A) when Arriva gained it back from Tates.

The Arriva website now just says 'timetable changes introduced' on the 147 where it used to say 'Sunday service now withdrawn', is the Sunday service definitely not running as no timetables have yet been published?

Will the 117 run as the current route via Westerton or direct from Shaw Cross to Tingley? Running on the current route would make the change on service 203 totally unnecessary.

Once I get back to Butchers Arms I know the rest into Dewsbury, from the days when the 121 (not to be confused with the 212) was run from Belle Isle. Penfold

Penfold easy enough; heading for DDH follow Branch Road round to the lights heading towards Batley Health Centre and Batley Pharmacy, turn left at the lights on to Mayman Lane, right on to Cemetry Road, straight left up Arncliffe Road and turn left on to Heyburn Road, right on to Healey Lane then left on Deighton Lane and rest you'll remember.

As I know there is one 147 from Wakefield to Normanton on a Sunday I believe?

Not according to the article from Wakefield Council, the scrapping is supposed to be suspended until as the route will go out for tender.

With it doing shorts AM and PM on sunday from Normanton to Wakefield/Pontefract
