Trip down memory lane in 10 bus photos from Chesterfield and beyond
Bus trips to celebrate football triumphs, to take food to the homeless or to promote charities – this large-scale transport has played a variety of roles in community life in Derbyshire.
For many the buses are a vital link to the outside world, from the elderly inhabitants of remote villages who no longer feel confident enough to drive to the college students who can’t yet afford their own car.
A trip back through our archives proves what a valuable asset buses are and how some people treasure this transport so much that they have bought their own!
This photo from our archives simply says Chesterfield Corporation Transport. Were they employees from the transport company, smartly-dressed workmates from another business going on a trip and what year was the photo taken? Photo: National World
