Spotted 37723 (YJ09 OBU) on leeds Road, looks like it was left there stranded overnight Which Leeds Road? In Huddersfield, was near Farm Foods. I think if it broke down or couldn't move it was probably the worst place to do it as road works are still ongoing there

Two buses running out of the usual six to seven on the 372… Can this stuff even be blamed on the driver shortage anymore?

AY Tempo 1312 heading towards Leeds on 110 service Penfold Don’t think I’ve ever seen a Tempo on the 110! Remember seeing them on the X41/X80 occasionally. I believe it only did the one trip to Leeds and back due to a shortage of vehicles. They may as well have kept it on all day once it had been on Hunslet Road and Metro's fine scheme. Penfold

Sorted now. This screenshot shows what happened to pretty much every single bus to Almondbury. Went into the bus station and went out of service or onto another route. The past week this route has been worse than the peak of the driver shortage. COVID seems to be on the rise? I wonder if that is a cause?

Forgot to post this earlier this week but, Tuesday @17.00 First Streetlite Max 63052(or could have been)63053 seen on A62 Manchester Rd By Stoney Battery headed towards Huddersfield displaying rail replacement on desti blind. Also Wednesday roughly the same time 63058 seen at the same location also headed in the same direction albeit blank desti blind. On both evenings neither were carrying passengers. A bit of research tonight shows they are ex-First Southampton buses in a predominately red "local" to Southampton livery but no branding. Can anyone shed any light on what they were doing there?, Are they transfers to Huddersfield or are they now with another operator, maybe just passing through. They both had First fleet numbers though.

They both had First fleet numbers though. A batch of former First Southampton Streetlites have entered service in Sheffield still in red. 63052 is one of these which has seen service in Sheffield according to Bustimes although this information is backed up by some photos appearing of these buses in service there.
