I saw a green hybrid on a school service through Hillsborough yesterday, I don't think Holbrook do school runs anymore, could it have moved to Ecclesfield?

InterWorks with 52/120 for positioning, part day. The 783 is a clever bit of allocation I’d have expected it to be part of the 57 or 201 (given that they are the Stagecoach services in Stocksbridge), but instead it works the 120 to Ranmoor terminus, a 783 from Notre Dame to Stocksbridge, then light to Hillsborough to work the 52s back to the Holbeck side of town, minimal dead running considering there’s no bus depot anywhere near Ranmoor and it’s a long old route - good work from whoever arranges such things |

It ran as what ever service from Chesterfield can't remember which route. Then a 57 from pond street to Stocksbridge then a Stocksbridge to notre dame school. Return to Stocksbridge in afternoon with then a 57 back to Sheffield. |

11715 HK delicensed-Plaxtons 11716 HK-Hyde Road Is 11716 (hopefully just) a loan so they can see it in the new colours? |

11715 HK delicensed-Plaxtons 11716 HK-Hyde Road Is 11716 (hopefully just) a loan so they can see it in the new colours? There is at least one in the new colours already in Manchester. I spotted it on Oxford Road a few weeks back, first time I actually saw the new livery in the flesh. Of course, having more than one spreads how many people get to see the new colours I guess.
With the loss of 11715 and Chesterfield needing more buses due to service increases at the end of the month surely we need more vehicles not less.

I'm almost certain there's an E200 in for repaint (from the old beachball livery) no idea if it's this one or not tho. Dave. Anyone know why 36458 has been out of Service for a while last tracked on 61 |
