‘Transpire’ being ‘The Chesterfield Bus Society’.
Apart from the widely known Peak Park Bus Rally organised by the group and held at ‘Peak Rail’, Rowsley, Derbyshire.
They also organise regular days and evenings out to operators and events both locally and nationally.
Friend Peter Rose joined the group which numbered about 20 or so enthusiasts, as a guest for the evening.
‘DWC’ operates an eclectic mix of buses and coaches on contract work in the area

We were the first to arrive and we were surprised to find the above parked up.
However, we realised that ‘Hulleys’ operate a service from Alfreton via Clay Cross to Chesterfield and it might be that one of their fleet overnights at ‘DWC’s premises rather than travelling empty to and from Baslow, the company’s base.
New to ‘Metroline’ as No. DM964.

I suspect that it was new to the ‘Arriva’ group.
I believe that the current registration was gained when it worked for
‘Panther Travel’ in Essex.
It was acquired from ‘Lloyds Coaches’, Machynlleth, Wales.
‘DWC’ sent this bus to Chesterfield to collect most of the balance of the party and it is pictured returning to base with them.
