I had a tour of Bury & Halifax today.
In Bury I rode Rosso 118, former Arriva London VLW76. It had been refurbished and has red seats, unlike Volvo B7TL-Presidents ex-Metroline and First/GAL.
In Halifax I rode Yorkshire Tiger, former Arriva London DW33. It had been refurbished and has orange seats. As you probably know, Yorkshire Tiger are part of Arriva.
