I think the airlines pay less to use a bus gate rather than a jet bridge. But they may opt to use a jet bridge for a tight turn around.

Sorry. Forgot them.

I think a new urban one. The keighley & Worth Valley, East Lancs, great Central and Severn Valley do well. A london one or a West Yorkshire one might do well. (Yes i know about the middleton). Bristol, glasgow, Edinburgh & Sheffield maybe too.

This was Martins bank in Leeds. Corner of Eastgate, Headrow and Vicar Ln. You can just make out their shield above the door with the grasshopper logo. I had a Barclays account in Northumberland late 70's And the cheques had the grass hopper logo. It was an kld Martins branch...

Bradfor Interchage had a release line. I suspect the scale of passenger operations there didnt justify a pilot - but thats just a guess.

I used a first bus 49 from Easterly road MacDonalds to Jimmys last week. Harehills Road was rammed with traffic, double paeked cars and parking in the bus stops where there is a yellow box. Was about 19:00. How can anyone operate a punctual bus service in that environment? Hpw do the drivers...

I just thought support vehicles added opportunities for modelling.

Wetherby is in Wharfedale!

Would we have more or less electrification ( dont know on this one) Would the move from DC to AC traction motors have still happened (Yes IMHO) ? How would substation technology have developed? But feel free to discuss anythong about this change and its aftermath.

this was silly in some cases. Take the bit of Harrogate Road in Leeds north of Moortown Corner. From the 1930's the 34 went north up Harrogate Road to the end of Alwoodley Lane Lane and the 35 came south. They were 'circulars' in that the rest of the route was King Lane and Alwoodley Lane...

Thats not a bad idea. Put some stock thats due for scrap in dry storage to resurect later when they become fashionable again. Imaine a cl 101 dmu thats been sat in a shed since withdrawal. Bit of heating to keep the damp out maybe?
