1716 was broken down on Leeds Rd, Newton Hill, at about 5.30pm Fri 20th Oct, Leeds bound on 110. Passengers were alighting and getting onto a Streetdeck that had pulled up behind.
Bus times shows it as last operating on 17th Oct so suspect it was tracking as another vehicle on Friday.

Been tracking as 1576 for about a week I believe Also, 1716's journey to leeds (1645 ex Wakefield) was the first one to leave Wakey after 1610 - lots of delays/cancellations on Friday!!

1896 (GN58 BSY) is an unusual performer on the 110 today! Just seen at Lofthouse Gate.
Also spotted a Streetdeck at Pontefract roundabout on Sunday heading towards Featherstone. Seemed unusual to see one there. Not sure what route it was on.

I don’t venture into Ponte that much, so was surprised to see it. But yes you’re right, having looked at Bus Times, there were a few Streetdecks on the 148/149 on Sunday. Every day’s a school day.

Seen Denby Darts 744 - P44 TDV running a trip on the 343 today. I have just checked bustimes and obviously it hasn't ran the 534 because the road is too tight and it seems to be an emergency replacements.

Believe the classic e200s have done 533/534 from when several Arriva buses got drafted in after the fire at Elland under Tiger.

Didn't catch the last three digits on reg, but looked to be in blue/white (light was fading a bit when i saw it). To me it looked like an ex-First example. Do you know if this is a purchase or a loan?.

The thing is the E200s Arriva used were minis where as Denby Darts are long wheelbase which means they can't do the 343. Since the 343 interworks the 534, the 343 doesn't usually have saloons allocated to it. Other than yesterday Team Pennine have had one saloon which is 1408 doing a return trip on the 343.

The mini e200s helped with the Leeds flood when the depot was still at Kirkstall. However some of MPDs got split between Waterloo & Honley before full withdrawl and again did 343/533/534.

No you have your facts all wrong, Elland fire was in 2015 where the Big In Wakey enviros came over, the Kirkstall fire never effected Elland, as someone who has lived in Halifax and remembers what happens I can tell you that you are completely wrong. The time when we had the 09 reg enviros they never did the 533/4 and they ran the X58 and 20. Try going up to Shibden Head and look at the road that they use to turn into Northowram, you clearly can't fit anything bigger than 9 or 10 metres there.

I worked at tiger during the fire at Elland and if I remember correctly the buses loaned were 1058, 1002, 1001, 1600 and 1609, I can't remember if there was any more but I can tell u driving the. Mini enviros round Halifax wasn't pleasant, given the gearboxes they have in them and the hills in Halifax, during the fire we had some tiger blue buses loaned too so the solos wee mainly kept on the 343, 534 circuits, decker were schools and rye lanes and then enviros was mainly a mix of different routes, even the 574 to midgley and booth
