Transdev York 714
Major service changes in the rural area to the north and west of York in late May saw Transdev services 142/3 between York and Ripon and 56/7 between Ripon and Harrogate withdrawn and replaced by the 22/23. With a convoluted route of two-and-a-half hours in length, there are unlikely to be too many takers end-to-end, though I doubt that’s the point. Seemingly holding the notion that they were rebranding a children’s nursery rather than a bus route, Transdev have dubbed the 22/23 ‘Little Explorers’, with three ageing MPDs suitably branded. In all seriousness, this venture is a creative attempt to encourage commercial viability in the face of a perpetual cycle of council cuts, and Transdev are to be commended for their positivity.
YJ04LXX (714), its driver, and one passenger are seen doing a little bit of exploring as they cross Ouse Gill Beck between Little and Great Ouseburns with the 08:40 York-Harrogate 22.
