I still don't understand how 66711 is still in Elmwood untouched.

[@theleedsbusdriver]

Might be more life in it in the future

[@YorksLancsTransportHub]

@@theleedsbusdriver I do hope so. Also how come 66710 was repainted rather than 66711 if 66710 did not stay as long.

[@theleedsbusdriver]

Change of plans.. The plan to withdraw them was after it was painted sadly

[@32446]

If you could only drive one bus for the rest of your life what bus would it be and why?

[@theleedsbusdriver]

I like 37697 because it's very easy to drive.. Nice n smooth

[@32446]

Very nice 👍🏼

[@alexishamer6427]

Why did these buses 🚌 go to the scrapyard? What a waste? How embarrassing 😳 🙈 thing to happen? Very sad 😔. It’s not supposed to happen yet because these buses 🚌 🚍 can do with many years to survive on the roads. It’s too late ⏰ now. Perhaps 🤔 the damage was done. Thanks 🙏 a lot. New buses 🚌 will replace these scrapped buses 🚌. 👍 👍

[@theleedsbusdriver]

I wish it didn't happen either :(
