Neville has been having a spring clean. This is what he came across:

1. Chesterfield Community Transport F716 TVC, a tri-axle Talbot Pullman (or Freeway) in an attractive
two tone green livery. Photograph c1993.

2. Between Christmas 1993 and New Year 1994, Peakbus operated service 141 between Clay Cross and Mansfield. FDV 786V,
a Bristol LHS6L with ECW body, photographed in Mansfield Bus Station.

3. The same in Clay Cross.

4. The same bus near North Wingfield Church.

5. Also used on the service was C812 CBU, a Dodge S56 with Northern Counties body - also photographed
in Clay Cross.

6. Photographed in Clay Cross also was BWA 260M, an AEC Reliance with a Plaxton coach body. This was new to Booth & Fisher
of Halfway (who worked out of the present TM Travel depot), but was now fleet number 1008 in the South Yorkshire PTE fleet.
It is working service 200 to Sheffield (operated jointly with Chesterfield Transport). Photograph c1990.

7. Chesterfield Transport Leyland Panther with Northern Counties body - photographed in the Retford & District fleet (fleet no. 20?) in Retford
bus station working on service 96 to Gainsborough. Photograph c1993.

8. The Panther later returned to the main Chesterfield fleet (now numbered 193) and was photographed picking up
passengers in Hepthorne Lane on the short lived 52 service (Chesterfield - Clay Cross) introduced due to competition
on the route from Sheffield Omnibus (who only ran the service for two days before "Chesterfield Omnibus" took over running on hire).
Photograph c1993.

9. Remember this one? An Optare MetroRider J366 BNW, presumably a demonstrator, operating for Aston Express.
Photograph c1994.
