TM Travel's Former 'Line 31' Solo 1194 (YJ57 EHC) (photo from the period in the 'Line 31' livery, working a tendered 265 journey between Sheffield and Barnsley on a Saturday Morning back in May) has joined 1202 (YN58 NDV) in Line 6 pink presumably as a spare. Neither, nor any of the new Solo SRs have yet to be branded.

(13 Dec 2015, 5:31 pm)tyresmoke Centro 1200 will usually be found on service 65 between Buxton & Sheffield, in between Unibus duties for which it will probably gain branding once again. It operates Unibus 4 from Bolsover. One of the other former Freebee Centro's is now in TM Travel red livery to re-join the fleet, these 3 have really been unloved, passed around the Wellglade fleet and now back with TM Travel.

Boxing day buses around West Yorkshire had issues due to the weather but most still seemed to carry good loadings,even those that got introduced only this year.First Bradford & Hunslet Pk routes was all run out of Bramley depot,while all of Arriva`s network was run out of Belle Isle Depot (& some very complicated interworkings!)
Some routes was badly affected, Calder Valley got hit possibly the worst with the Todmorden route only running to Calder High School & the Sowerby Br route only running to Pye Nest,but as the day continued Leeds is now also having bad flooding issues,with Kirkstall road (one of the key roads in/out of the city) being badly hit as well as the Wetherby area https://www.flickr.com/photos/76935272@N05/23986010245/
