Was'nt going to do anything bank holiday monday,but the weather was nice,i was up fairly early and i had a scratch and go ticket in my bag, so it was time to go off on a west yorkshire dayrover
West Yorkshire day Rover -Aug 28th 2017
as it was a bank holiday the buses did'nt start til 0830 so it was a walk to woodhouse to catch the 0810 to sheffield-normily worked on a weekday by a pair of pacers today there was a 153/142 combination-i plumped for 153328.then it was aride to Huddersfield on 144020. from there i was supposed to do a move to marsden but 158905 tempted me for a ride to dewsbury on the 1059 leeds stopper, then onwards on 195147 to leeds and my first ride on 142089 for the day to castleford ,after a quick look round castleford (first time i've been since the new bus station opened!) it was off on 144015 up to wakefield kirkgate.I did'nt look round wakefield but had a hour on the platform (got a 66 on frieght so was'nt too bad) next up it was a ride on 180101,i was planning to do it all the way to bradford interchange but i bailed at low moor (winner station number 1 of the day) from there it was a ride on 155341 to halifax and then a quick sprint to catch 150277 to bradford interchange.a quick nip to greggs and a walk to Forster square to catch winner 333009 to Apperley bridge (new station of the day 2
) after half an hour it was back to leeds for another run to castleford on 144008, from there it was time to clear the line to goole and the second tide of the day on 142089 & 153328 (me and 2 others got off at goole and one of those was a enthusiast
) .after half an hour in goole it was time to get 158817 to doncaster and the final move of the day was a 185 to sheffield (for some reason i forgot to log the number in the book !!!) so all in all a great day out-2 stations cleared , a 333 cleared ,a ride on my fave 158 (158905!!!) and i finally got to clear the knootingley to goole line
