Following service changes at the start of September, there's been a few major fleet movements:
Enviro200s
36414/5/718/9: Rawmarsh to Ecclesfield
36985: Chesterfield to Ecclesfield
Scania N230UD
5 examples have moved from Ecclesfield to Chesterfield
Enviro400s
19104: Chesterfield to Ecclesfield
MAN E300/ADL E300s
4 examples (including 22630/3) have moved from Ecclesfield to Rawmarsh in exchange for the previously mentioned E200s

There's been a few route allocation changes as well:
57: Previously operated by Scania E400s or standard E400s when interworking with the 265 (along with the occasional MAN) and an E200 on a night (running off the SL1/SL1a), the new 57/201 interworking is now allocated E200s due to a weight-restricted Bridge in the Stocksbridge area (an age improvement for the 201 - which was previously allocated a Dart)
72 (Chesterfield): This now interworks with the 44, meaning the allocation of E200s on the 44 is now joined by the MAN E300s and the ADL E400s used on the 72
50 (Chesterfield): Now mainly Scania E400s
220/221/222: Now allocated MAN E300s (220/221 have always been allocated MAN E300s, 222 has been E200s since it was cut back to Mexborough)

Due soon are 6 new ADL E200MMCs for Barnsley. Unlike previously examples of the type for this region, these are the normal midibus examples for use on 'Townlines' 1 (Barnsley Interchange to Staincross) replacing 5 year old 'classic' examples 36713-8 which are presently being repainted to remove the original branding.
