    South Yorkshire People's Network. Future proposals & speculative discussion

    Can't see that happening, the 18a was cut again recently to allow Worst to run one bus each way, as I was recently after checking the price one way between Grimesthorpe and Gleadless Townhead £12, including a £2 peak surcharge with good ol' Veezu (add on another £1 for the driver) My point is...

    Must admit one I've forgot until now is the 56 between Lincoln, Horncastle and Skegness, the views of Lincolnshire wolds is a really good run, pleasantly surprised with the x17 between Matlock and Chesterfield

    Britain's Most Scenic Bus routes

    257 between Sheffield and Bakewell is worth a trip going round Dambusters country and Yorkshire bridge, then through the villages including Eyam on the way into Bakewell.

    Hulley's of Baslow (Defunct)

    I wouldn't bank on South Pennine being able to take on any more work. There new bus depot is round the corner from me and has a small work shed, which would 3 buses and a parking area which would hold another 2. Tm or Andrews would be the best bet to pick up any extra journeys on the 272

    Bus Service Improvement Plan Progress (including BSIP+)

    Having lived in walkley, it will be a ruddy nightmare going forward. I still have bad thoughts for these changes after the 95 used to run through to Beighton, Sothall, Crystal Peaks and Killamarsh years ago. It didn't work then... And now ?

    Derbyshire Dales independent bus and Coach companies of the 70s and 80s

    Whites were purchased by Chesterfield Transport, most of the work was lost or passed over to Stagecoach.. Also you're right with wooliscrofts and Hulleys. I think the merger happended around 1979 and the split took place when Terrier bought Silver Service. I'm happy to corrected if anyone else...

    Derbyshire Dales independent bus and Coach companies of the 70s and 80s

    Whites of Calver used to operate the 65 / 66 over to Tideswell and Buxton. Silver Service later became Kingsman Travel after Yorkshire Terrier took over and closed it down to a coaching operation and running the X46 to Killamarsh. Most of the Peak District routes passed to Hulleys I think
