Arriva 0407 on 254 this time. I could've sworn Solos weren't allowed in the bus station. the management need to be notified coz there's a fine to pay. Apparently they sit on New York Street outside the bus station where they would send a runner up to stand around stand alerting customers.

I'm the only one who's on light duties, can't go on sick, cos I'm NOT off sick. I've had my bus licence revoked by DVLA while I get at least 6 weeks of blood sugar levels while I'm injecting myself with insulin, before they send me for a medical to hopefully get it back quickly. And talking to my colleagues, there's nobody over at Leeds doing as you claim, and staff with a Solo on any of the Heckmondwike routes, have been told that they MUST go into Leeds via the correct route of Vicar Lane and terminate/wait time at Eastgate.

Hope it's not affecting you too badly and are on the mend.

Just what I have heard, couldn't tell whether they were joking or not.

If it is anything like the Witchway, where the slightest incline can bring them down from 60 to 40, I don’t imagine it did great I believe they are also ZFs with Kickdown/Topodyn, can imagine it being worse with a voith!

Just seen 2 (or quite possibly more) Leeds Streetdecks following each other on Stanningley Town Street in the direction of Bramley (at the mini roundabout near The Sun Inn). I was coming down Richardshaw Lane.
I turned right to follow them and it looked like there were more than 2 in convoy further down the road (I was quite far behind though).

May I ask why Leeds would be duping Bradford routes when they have their own limited stike service to run? Complicated reasons, I believe it was staff from other depots (Doncaster / Leicester) driving the services, whom didn’t want to cross a picket line. 10 green buses were sent from BG to BD.

YN56 NVG for some reason tracking out of Huddersfield at 11pm, long after the duties finished on the nine in Leeds. It seems strange for them to travel so far away from home.
