I am interested to know why the 1433 Monday to Friday service 272 from Castleton arrives at Fox House as 272 then changes to 82 Hall Park Head before continuing its journey.

I'd guess that (now that Bright Bus/ MASS have pulled out of running school services, with dedicated green buses, meaning regular services are inconvenienced to free up resources for school duties) the 13:31 81 from Stannington to Dore (arrive 14:36) is scheduled to be 'decker that then goes off to do a school duty (High Storrs? King Egcberts?), so the 272 diverts into Dore to fill a duty on the 81/82 (providing the 15:15 from Angel Street to Stannington. Certainly not perfect (and could be advertised better on the 272 timetable to show a time for somewhere closer to town), but a pragmatic way of finding a bus to do a school duty and maintain a regular service on the busy 81/82 (and, given the need for those services, the inbound 271 is probably the quietest service of the three).
