It's not, this was from stop Civic Q on the Headrow which is at bang on midnight.

We next board the 0646 First Halifax, Calder Valley & Huddersfield service 363 to Huddersfield* (Bradford Road/Netheroyd Hill Road), arriving there at 0718 on Sunday morning.

* For clarity, Bus Times states that this stop is in Sheepridge, but in fact Sheepridge is an 18 minute walk/0.9 miles away! Cowcliffe and Brackenhall, in which this bus stop is situated more or less halfway been the two, are actually marginally closer. Yet again another one of those examples on Bus Times where the location is inaccurate.

The obscure bustimes area names often relate to official parish boundaries, etc., so are often technically correct, eveb if day-to-day locals would never dream of using them!I have no idea on Sheepridge though :)

We walk to the Fixby (Lightridge Rd / Netheroyd Hill Road) stop (7 min / 0.2 mile) where we await service 547 at 0907. We alight at Birkby (Wheathouse Rd / Newland Ave) at 0915 on Sunday.
