A lot of people do that with plate so it looks like it’s saying something it is illegal though as they are meant to not have a space between the first letter and last number
Timetable for the 47 finally available on Bustimes:

It's a little different to the original timetable though and suggests it is probably being run with just one vehicle all day, though there is still no tracking yet to verify that.
I have seen Facebook posts from people saying they've purchased annual passes for WOB and now can't use them on the Howards services.
