East Yorkshire 741 (3741 RH) at Scott's Cafe in Mytholmroyd - Oct 1972
October 1972 - East Yorkshire Motor Services 741 (3741 RH), a Harrington Cavalier bodied Leyland Leopard new in May 1963, seeing during a refreshment break at Scott's Cafe in Mytholmroyd. It was working the 1515 Blackpool to Hull express service and timed here between 1730 and 1800.
The service had a simple format with the coach travelling out and back within the day operating on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays (20 May to 15 October 1972); also Tuesdays and Thursdays (4 July to 12 October 1972).
Westbound timings were Hull (0900), Howden (0945), Selby (1005), Monk Fryston (1018), West Garforth (1034) and Halifax (1123). The refreshment break was then taken at Mytholmroyd (1140-1210) continuing via Hebden Bridge (1213), Todmorden (1225), Burnley (1247), Accrington (1302), Blackburn (1316), Preston (1340) and Blackpool (1425).
Eastbound timings were Blackpool (1515), Preston (1600), Blackburn (1624), Accrington (1638), Burnley (1653), Todmorden (1715), Hebden Bridge (1727), Mytholmroyd (1730-1800), Halifax (1817), West Garforth (1906), Monk Fryston (1921), Selby (1935), Howden (1955) and Hull (2040)
Express services were regulated at the time and the Road Service Licence for this service contained the following stipulations:
For passengers boarding at Hull or Howden the first set down was Halifax; boarding at Selby the first set down was Todmorden; and boarding at Monk Fryston or West Garforth the first set down was Accrington.
I don’t know exactly when the service ceased travelling via the Calder Valley route but this would have been fairly soon following the opening of the M62 motorway in the early 1970s. This was also around the time that the National Travel coach brand was introduced.
I am not totally sure of just where the café stood. From memory I believe the property in the background may be where the Co-op Filling Station and food store now are.
