‘Scene’ in Huddersfield 4 ‘Arriva Yorkshire’ on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

Or ‘uddersfield as we Yorkshire folk are given to calling it.

 

My first real day out ‘bus hunting’ in 2022 was to the two West Yorkshire towns of Halifax and Huddersfield.

 

Only 9 or so miles apart in distance but separated in fact by an enormous hill along the top of which runs the M62 motorway.

The registration is a ‘cherished’ one, owned by ‘Arriva’.

 

When new, it was registered YJ61 OBW.

 

Interestingly, the cherished registration has been used twice before.

 

The first time was on a Park Royal bodied Leyland PD2 dating from 1957.

 

The second time was on a Northern Counties bodied Leyland Olympian dating from 1988.

There are some suggestions on the internet that the chassis might be a Dennis Dart but I have never seen this body style on a Dart chassis before.
