The running boards will usually operate 5 58's then run a 35 and so on.

(09 Dec 2014, 7:50 pm)tyresmoke I think it's because all of the school finish times have changed for Oakfields, meaning they're no longer necessary.The 13A should never of been really as the 14:30 13 from Hemlington gets all the kids, and I mean ALL the kids, around 70+. I speak from experience. So by the time the next 13 or would of been 13A would have no kids to collect. Oakfields get out around 14:30 and Acklam Grange 15:00. You will notice any 11/12 drivers going down Acklam Road around this time making a mad dash for safety.
