(16 Jun 2016, 6:58 pm)South Tyne Lad First West Yorkshire have started to Roll out " Pulse " branding onto their new Wright Streetdeck's, And I think it looks shocking.
Doesn't fit in with the design of the bus at all.

Too much stuff over a small bit of the bus.


(16 Jun 2016, 7:08 pm)Jimmi The Pulse branding looks shocking anyway in fairness, never been a fan of it.

Its ok on the Geminis/ Gemini 2s, Though the E400s where it the best.

The branding on the Streetdeck doesn't fit the design of the bus in my opinion.

On another note, Yorkshire Tiger's former ANE Dennis Trident 891 W501RBB looks to be heading to the Scrapyard, After being robbed of still useable parts.

Also note this one was deroofed around the Halifax area last year, Which was probably the reason its withdrawn.

First South Yorkshire

35000 remains on-loan - following the changes to the X78 back in May, it now additionally works 3 and a half trips on the 69 (Rotherham-Sheffield via Tinsley) on a weekday morning before dropping onto the full X78 (it works Rotherham shorts and Doncasters on Saturdays)

[Image: 27749455644_77670fe340_c.jpg]First South Yorkshire 35000 (YJ16 DFG) by Tony Kuy, on Flickr

Further major changes are taking place in the Rotherham and Sheffield area in early September as followed:
  • The 35 (Sheffield-Wincobank-Meadowhall-Hillsborough) will be reduced from half hourly Sheffield-Wincobank (hourly to Hillsborough) to just the hourly full route journeys.
  • The short 35s will be replaced by new service 70 which also partily replaces services 69 and certain 71 journeys. The remaining 71s are also slightly re-routed within the Meadowhall area while some journeys replace the 69 in Tinsley.
  • The 69 is fully replaced by new service X1 between Rotherham and Sheffield, which also extends to Maltby replacing the 1/2.
  • The X78 is reduced to every 15 minutes throughout the route. Between Rotherham and Meadowhall, the service is re-routed to replace the 22m which is withdrawn.
  • Saturday journeys on the 31/31a (Sheffield-Loxley) will be operated by Stagecoach instead of Sheffield Community Transport
  • The SL (Middlewood Park & Ride - Stockbridge) will be renumbered SL1/SL1a with alternative journeys operating the reverse route around the Stockbridge loop. Evening journeys on the SL1 are also revised and extended from Middlewood to Hillsborough Interchange (route to be confirmed)

Now confirmed, the 10 Enviro200MMCs for South Yorkshire are for Olive Grove depot. The first example is confirmed as 67141 (YY16 YLN)/

More details have been posted on the Travel South Yorkshire Service Update list.

On top of previously posted:
  • Linburg will cease service work - the Abbeydale Road Tesco services (C1/C2/C3/C4/C5/C6) are withdrawn. The 505 which runs at peaks times only will be replaced by peak time extra journeys on TM Travel's Line 6.[Image: 17414540114_1ece47d5af_c.jpg]Linburg OUI9980 by Tony Kuy, on Flickr
  • The 'new' X1 (in reality the merger of the 69 with the 1/2) will operate every 10 minutes combined - in Maltby half the journeys will terminate at the present 1 terminus at Quailter Road Model Village (and will show 'Maltby, Quailter Road') while the other half termiante at the present 2 terminus at Salisbury Road (and will show that on the destination). The Sheffield terminus will move from the Interchange to Eyre Street to serve the Moor Market. Monday to Saturday early evening the service will operate every 20 minutes until 2100 when it reduces to every 30 minutes. Sundays will operate every 20 minutes until 1800 then every 30 minutes. Evening and Sunday journeys interwork with the Doncaster-bound 10 in Maltby.
  • The current X13 from Sheffield to Woodlaithes is renumbered X3 (to tie-in with the X1 no doubt) with an extra AM into Sheffield leaving Woodlaithes at 0650 and an extra PM from Sheffield leaving at 1800.
  • In Doncaster, Stagecoach's hourly extension of the X19 to Robin Hood Airport is replaced by a new First-operated X4.
  • In the Dearne Valley, Stagecoach's services are mainly retimed to improve coordination - the 22x/222/226 between Barnsley and Wath, the 220/221 between Doncaster and Mexborough.
  • TM Travel's 218 drops 2 weekday-only journeys - the 0630 from Sheffield to Matlock (the one and only journey along the old route that remains) plus the 1625 from Bakewell to Sheffield via Chatsworth House. The Saturday-only 0830 from Sheffield to Bakewell direct is introduced on a weekday as well.

More of the new South Yorkshire Timetables now available:
  • 57/SL1/SL1a:  SL1 evenings are reduced to hourly (SL1a also hourly - meaning some passengers connecting off the tram will have a longer wait as the current frequency is every 20 same as the trams). Sunday daytimes - combined 20 minutes frequency of 2 SL1s and 1 SL1a an hour. The Hillsborough evening extension is via Middlewood Road following the tram tracks
  • 70/71: combined half hourly service between Rotherham and Meadowhall with both services operating via St Lawerence Road but only towards Meadowhall/Sheffield. These services also serve the new Bus Rapid Transit road in that direction. The early morning weekday journeys from Rotherham to Sheffield operate as 71s rather than 70s. All evening and Sunday journeys between Rotherham and Meadowhall operate as 70s.
  • 6/6a: only two am peak journeys into Sheffield and one PM return replaces the 6 am and 6 pm trips on the 505 (which all run as round trip return journeys - but currently terminate at the University of Sheffield's Western Bank Campus)
  • 38/38a: 38a journeys run off peak only.
  • X3: the current X13 renumbered and revised to operate via the current 69 route out of Sheffield to Brinsworth Batley Lane (towards Sheffield, it operates via St Lawerence Road and the new Bus Rapid Transit Road)
  • X78: new frequency - every 15 minutes from each end of the route from 0700 until 1800 when it drops to every 20 (Doncaster drops to every 20 from 1745). From Sheffield it is every 20 minutes until 2030 (1930 and 2030 from Sheffield terminate in Rotherham) while Doncaster drops to half hourly from 1900. The last journeys along the full route now also leave earlier - the last departure from Doncaster to Sheffield is now half an hour earlier at 2210 arriving at 2322 (currently 2240 arriving at 2352, while the last Sheffield to Doncaster leaves at 2225 (currently 2230) arriving at 2337.

And in other news - which fits here as it is officially part of the Stagecoach Yorkshire operation - Chesterfield's new E200MMCs 26081-7 (YY16 YJL/M/N/O/P/R/S) are due to enter service this upcoming Monday (8th August) on the 54 (Chesterfield-Clay Cross). A number of the batch (either 3 or 4) are branded for the service in the same style used on Rawmarsh's examples on the 22x.

Chesterfield will also be having a Trident Farwell next Saturday (13th August) with their 6 non-DDA Tridents (17004/7-9/50/8) being used on services 25 (Chesterfield - New Whittington) and 84 (Royal Hospital - Holymoorside via Chesterfield Town Centre). In addition, open top Leyland Fleetline 15513 will be joining in the fun along with Stagecoach East's Tri Axle Leyland Olympian 14000. One of the vehicles will also operate Chesterfield's final 77 of the day between Chesterfield and Worksop leaving Chesterfield at 2005 and Worksop Bus Station at 2135.

Agreed!

The branding on that E200MMC is excellent. It's eye-catching, but retains Stagecoach's corporate theme at the same time.
