Confirmed fleet movements following service changes at the weekend:
- Following the reduction in PVR at Rawmarsh depot with the changes to the 217/218 (now 218/218a), Pointer Darts 35233/4 have transferred to Chesterfield.
- As a result of the transfer of the aforementioned Darts, plus the recent reduction of Frequency of Chesterfield service 10 (Chesterfield Elder Way to Newbold), frees up enough Darts and E200s to convert the 39 (Grangewood Farm to Holme Hall Estate via Chesterfield Town Centre) to larger vehicle operation. As such, 5 Solos have been transferred from Chesterfield to Ecclesfield (2) and Barnsley (3) for the former Yorkshire Tiger services. The only examples that is confirmed to still be at Chesterfield is, of course, 'MatlockBus' branded 47325.
Thanks to Steven Knight's 'Fleetnews Rambling' Page, the transferred Solos are 47317/8 (Ecclesfield) and 47319-21 (Barnsley). That leaves 47322-5 at Chesterfield - giving one spare on a weekday and two on Saturdays (the Matlock towns only operates Monday to Friday).
