35102 only joined Rotherham on Monday or Tuesday, i saw it on the 503 in Huddersfield on Sunday on what was probably its last day at Halifax.

Could that have been 35101?

It would have been yes

Tomorrow will be the last day of Volvo B10BLE operation in Sheffield. To mark this event there is a tour which will cover a large number of routes associated with the Renowns over the last seventeen (almost eighteen) years. The last trip of the tour will be the final service 84 from Loxley which has been withdrawn as part of the Sheffield Bus Partnership
There are eighteen examples left at Olive Grove - these being T-ODTs and Y-CSFs. The Y-reg examples are due to move to Doncaster

After yesterday's extremely enjoyable tour with the excellent 60700 (better than any Renown I have been on in the North West) I have since read on a local enthusiast forum that five of the T-reg Renowns (including 60700) are going to be retained on a temporary basis. This will only be until Rotherham have enough StreetDecks to release more vehicles to Olive Grove (which should be fairly soon) as a few of them have now been built and should be arriving at Rotherham in the very near future

The first three StreetDecks have now entered traffic. However it appears that there will be a gap in the list of registrations so I will update that when I have more information

I have spotted a photo on Flickr of an FSY StreetDeck in service.

I have to say the new Wright look has grown on me massively, I'd also like to see some First livery variations closer to home in Manchester.
