We next board the 1223 First Leeds service 28 to Leeds (York Street...Stop F5) that arrives there at 1254 on Thursday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We just have enough time to board the 1259 First Leeds service 19 to Ireland Wood (Raynel Gardens), arriving there at 1336 on Thursday afternoon.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1348 First Leeds service 19 to Garforth (Lidgett Lane/Beech Terrace) that arrives there at 1507 on Thursday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Taking the short walk up to Main Street, we then board the 1522 Arriva Yorkshire service 163 to Castleford (Bus Station), arriving there at 1559 on Thursday afternoon.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1606 Arriva Yorkshire service 189 to Wakefield bus station that arrives there at 1638 on Thursday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We continue our travels across Yorkshire as we board the 1650 Arriva Yorkshire service 127 to Dewsbury (Bus Station), arriving there at 1738 on Thursday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1811 Arriva Yorkshire service 278 to Halifax bus station that arrives there at 1910 on Thursday evening.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We then board the 1918 First Halifax, Calder Valley and Huddersfield service 512 to Mixenden (Clough Lane Reservoir), arriving there at 1938 on Thursday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Knowing that there are both the 510 and the 512 services on the Halifax to Mixenden circular services from real-life visits to that area, we next board the first bus that arrives, which is the 1949 First Calderdale and Huddersfield service 512 to Pellon (Moor End Road/Sandbeds Road that arrives there at 1957 on Thursday evening.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Just a side note, which I'd like to query as we go along:

We appear to have used two separate operating names for the same service? The First website and Google Maps states it is First Halifax, Calder Valley and Huddersfield, yet Traveline Yorkshire states it as First Calderdale and Huddersfield? Which one is the more updated version? I'd like to use the correct one and have uniformity throughout. Thanks

It is probably wise that we head back to an area where onward connections are available, this being very important in this game to keep moving, so we then board the 2028 First (*insert which ever brand is correct*) service 512 back to Halifax (King Edward Street), arriving there at 2055 on Thursday evening.

Dan - it matters not, 'First' will suffice as long as the meaning is clear.

 

[A Challenge]

Walk the 0.3 miles to Halifax Station, and get the 21:11 Northern service to Mytholmroyd, arriving at 21:23 on Thursday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

On leaving the railway station, we take the four minute walk to the bus stop adjacent to The Dusty Miller PH and board the 2143 First Calderdale and Huddersfield service 592 to Mereclough (Fighting Cocks) that arrives there at 2233 on Thursday evening.

 

[ValleyLines142]

transportphoto - thank you for your clarification however I do find it pointless that two seperate names are being used. I shall continue to use the name listed on the First bus app as I believe this is probably the most updated version and it is their own site after all!

We then board the 2308 First Halifax, Calder Valley and Huddersfield service 592 to Todmorden (Bus Station), arriving there at 2335 on Thursday evening.

[ValleyLines142]

Not quite. Seacroft is a little further south.
