Unfortunately can't post a source as not seen it written down but my understanding is that Selwyns are pulling out of NX operations at Leeds, including possibly making drivers redundant.

This is further enhanced by Acklams coaches of Beverley running the 561 service car from Bradford to London victoria at 1250 and 1930 return.

Acklams normally just do duplicates or when East Yorkshire can't provide a coach.

As far as I know like the previous poster says its 170/171/173/561 they did do 134/131s too but East Yorkshire and Stagecoach stonegravels and i think Go North East do some of them as well.

Not only would Acklams be doing this work, they've also added Welsh's of Upton's yard to their operators licence. Didn't realise they had 100 discs now!

Significant development as that is more than Welsh's currently have from their site - so this isn't just the tour operations being took on, there'll be contracts on the way too.

Haven't Stott's (Huddersfield) got some runs on the Manchester-Leeds route? Pretty sure I've seen some of their coaches on there in the past.

171, 172, 173 off the top of my head, not certain on times. Im sure they do some 561s as well. There's probably others also
Purely based on what bustimes.org says with buses that have tracked.

All 170/171 are Selwyns (1 bus starts/ends in Leeds, all others buses start and finish in Liverpool). Plus the following trips:
11:25 134 Bradford - Birmingham
16:00 131 Birmingham - Bradford
07:10 131 Bradford - Birmingham
12:00 131 Birmingham - Bradford
Also formerly the 2 journeys on the 561 which is in the OP.

172 is all Go North East and 173 is Stotts.
