No. 11 - SW64 XAR (1). This ADL Enviro 200 came to Hulleys from Leask of Lerwick and was photographed in a landscape almost as barren as its previous home in the Shetland Islands. Service 258 ran during the summer of 2022 as a Sunday-only variant of the 257. It followed the 257 route via Ladybower as far as Hathersage but then headed back towards Sheffield via Burbage Bridge all the way to Ringinglow, continuing via Fox House to Grindleford before ultimately reaching Bakewell. Eyam was omitted. Innovative certainly, but probably not the best choice of route. The photograph shows No. 11 between Burbage Bridge and Higger Tor on the 1525 journey from Bakewell to Sheffield (running about half an hour late). This is probably the only bus service ever to have featured Higger Tor as an intermediate point on its destination display, and it doesn't look likely to be repeated!
