Today whilst in Barnsley i noticed Tates had a Tesco's (505) B6BLE on Service 18 still with Tates Brading, seems strange that they still have this bus and are using it on commercial work if like said TM have taken over the 505 contract. Seems even more strange that one bus is with Tates yet according to other posts one has had its branding removed and is running the 505 under TM along with their own vehicles, all I can assume is either Tates have bought one off of Tesco but haven’t painted it up or for some reason there retaining one until the official cancellation date shown on the Vosa which according to the info copied onto here has yet to come. None the less odd and certainly a unusual working.

Yeah, my theory is outlined here. Although within the last week, I have not seen the B6LEs on the 505, it has been entirely Centros. Maybe YJ07JWU will be delivered with Tesco branding?

TM's YJ07JWW was in TESCO's Abbeydale Road car park earlier today.

TM's YJ07JWW was in TESCO's Abbeydale Road car park earlier today. Yeah, both the 07 Centros were on today. The B6(B?)LEs seem to have disappeared from the 505!

One of the former TESCO buses was in Barnsley yesterday. Forgot to see which one. Still in blue livery with full TESCO Abbeydale Road lettering. Looks rather bizzarre in the Barnsley Interchange. I always understood that TESCO actually owned them, and that First/the other lot (can't remember who they were) operated them.
