Yorkshire Tiger - which also has a depot in Waterloo , Huddersfield - runs bus services across West Yorkshire.

A West Yorkshire fire brigade spokesman said: “It was reported as a large vehicle fire and when the first crews arrived, they found that up to seven buses were involved.

“They requested help from other stations and it was made a five-pump incident.

“The crews remained at the scene for several hours”.

At its height, the firefighters tackled the blaze using four large jets and three breathing apparatus sets.

Crews from Rastrick, Halifax, two from Huddersfield, Illingworth and Ossett in attendance.

The cause of the fire is being investigated.

Meanwhile, firefighters from Huddersfield fought a blaze which ripped through a trailer parked at Folly Hall.

The articulated trailer was parked up in a layby in Queens Mill Road, Huddersfield.

The fire crews used large jets to put out the blaze.

One eyewitness said: “It looks as though they filled the trailer with water to put out the flames”.

The cause is being investigated.

There have been complaints about trailers and lorries parking up in the road, which is the site of the Hunter Group waste disposal firm.
