Hulleys 8
Hulleys Dennis Dart SLF/Plaxton Pointer 2 SN55DVO (8) seen at Tolls Wood whilst operating the 09:28 Matlock-Bakewell 172.
This was one of two Darts purchased from Yellow Buses in June last year, joining an example (3) which arrived the year before. All three were new for Manchester Airport work. A fourth Dart (11) arrived in September 2019, and has recently been withdrawn with engine failure. The remaining vehicles are due for replacement before January as DCC are specifying that vehicles used on funded services must reach a minimum of Euro IV emissions standards from that point.
One may note the DCC coronavirus distancing poster fixed to the adjacent stop flag in common with just about every other stop under their jurisdiction. I doubt that anyone has boarded a bus there since we were shrouded by the current malaise, and probably for some time before that too!
