Noted 1464 in service yesterday at Wakefield. 1456 still there as well. Only bus I did not see out of batch 1456-1470 was 1457. Wonder if it has gone to Heck now that 64 is back.

As an aside, with details of new orders very sketchy for 2017/8, does anyone have details of these MMCs - even if its just the amount expected?

Quite the reverse. Being involved in a number of these in London, Saturday is a far better day. Between 1000 and 1600 garages are relatively empty, so the space is there for display vehicles and sales stalls etc.

A Sunday means a shed full of buses to be moved in and out, and the resource (and off site location to put them) to do it.

RE: Arriva Yorkshire
Some Enviro 400-MMCs have recently entered service with Arriva Yorkshire. There are ordinary examples on routes 189 (Leeds - Castleford - Wakefield), 254 (Leeds - Cleckheaton - Dewsbury) and 255 (Leeds - Cleckheaton - Halifax). There are Sapphire examples on routes 163 & 166 (Leeds - Castleford). These have displaced Volvo B5LHs mainly if not all to Belle Isle to replace LF Spectras.
