A very common scene when the darts were in service in Sheffield. Remember being on many that failed on the 95 going up Shrewsbury Road or Birley Moor Road upto Frecheville.

SPD Dart's: as unreliable then as they are now. At least the Powerblinds worked.

624 - the 'Robinson Crusoe' bus? Speaking of which, have you any pictures of that particular incident? It's the one where 624 went and mounted itself on a newly-installed traffic island on East Bank Road, incurring much damage in the process.

Poor duggy went out to it and had its tyres damaged by debris from 624, staff on site had an intresting time dealing with local residants ;D
