05.02.24. A contrast in the livery styles of the two major Sheffield operators, both using a very similar shade of blue. Stagecoach's recent Enviro 400s have particularly clear rear destination displays, a feature yet to be seen First buses in the city. First's Volvo B9TL, a former West Yorkshire bus now promoting the musician Self Esteem, is heading towards the Interchange on service 208, with the destination display already set for the return journey to Whiston at 1530. For some reason best known to themselves First buses on the 208 show 'Worrygoose Roundabout' with no hint as to where that is and no mention of intermediate points, unlike on most other services; 'Whiston via Tinsley and Brinsworth' would be far more helpful to passengers as most Sheffield residents will have never heard of Worrygoose Roundabout. The photograph was taken in Flat Street, Sheffield, with the former GPO building dominating the scene. (Photo taken and posted 5 Apr 2024)
