One of the workings of the year so far - TM Travel's FreeBee liveried Solo YN57KFE on the anti-clockwise 33 Orbital Link service. It was later on services 70 and 90 in the evening. These buses are intended to work all day Monday to Saturday on the FreeBee route, although there is a spare Solo, branded in SYPTE livery and also carrying 'Sheffield FC 150 years' branding.

After failing on Beetwell Street, Sarah Dart 32114, or K114SRH had to be recovered by Stonegravels Depot's recovery vehicle, 97011. It is seen here hitching up to the bus. 97011 was originally brand new to East Midland.
