Apparently Team Pennine Solo 181 - YK08 ERX did the DenbyDarts D1 the other day. Can anyone confirm this as true? Or was it a ticket swap? Wouldn’t shock me I think a couple of the branded vehicles are off road. They made a big mistake doing up those buses with the dodgy gearbox Usually when one of them is out of service their go to choice is one of the unbranded tempos but recently there’s been MMCs The D1 allocated ones (742-747) have had their ZF ASTronic gearboxes removed and replaced with Allison gearboxes instead - presumably this is more cost effective than giving them new ZF boxes multiple times a year due to their unreliability.

They picked the best gearbox for an E200! When did this change happen? I’ve been getting super unlucky with allocations on the D1. Haven’t had the TDV plates for a good two months, despite using it twice a week

A bus caught fire yesterday on the 180s, around 9pm. I believe it is 37258?

People have also have been saying that apparently 185/6 are going to be getting refurbished whilst 169, 201 and 202 are getting withdrawn. Whether this is true or not I do not know but I find it likely if the Versas are going they will probably go to new operators as they aren't in the worst condition.

Not spotted today: any buses working the 51/52 on bustimes.org. I was on 35579 on the 52, but that was last seen working the 50A on that website, yesterday.

Not sure what's going on at Keighley recently but there are strange allocations all over the place! Too many to list.
Is there a vehicle shortage?

Just seen 35621 at Rodley Roundabout on a 16 (not 16A), tracking on bustimes as heading to Pudsey, but quite late. Strange. Edit: looks like Farsley Town Street is closed on Google Maps. Edit #2: 35267 is now in Calverley! (Image attached). Attachments:
