Most bus services in and around Heckmondwike were provided by the Yorkshire Woollen District company. When the West Yorkshire passenger Transport Executive was formed, it took control of YWD's services, although the company remained part of the National Bus Company. Therefore, most YWD buses were repainted into the PTE's Verona green and cream livery, but a few, as here, retained the NBC red (albeit with WYPTE decals).
