High Peak
As most people know, this is the 50:50 joint venture between Centrebus and Wellglade, operating buses from depots at Chapel en le Frith and Dove Holes.

Recent developments include:

Transpeak branded excels 158 (S158 UAL) and 232 (X232 WRA) are now officially restricted to local duties. What where the two Trent Barton liveried Scanias 647/648 are now transpeak vehicles.

Scania / Olympus 907 is now in use on a trial basis on transpeak. Its use will eradicate the need for duplicate runs.

Excels 226/227 have been fitted with LED destination displays.

A number of contract services operated by TM Travel in the Ashbourne area are to be taken over by High Peak. These are the 110/111/112 routes that operate between Ashbourne and Matlock (with many variations) as well as one evening run on the 109 (Ashbourne to Derby via Hulland Ward). It is expected that the current arrangement (whereby the bus that operates these journeys is out stationed at the Trent Barton Belper garage) will remain.

Two former Nottingham City Transport 'Skylink' OmniCities (YN04 GMZ/Y) have been bought by High Peak for use on transpeak

Link sends you to Facebook home page rather than the Transpeak's photo album.

The link for the album can be found here

Have to say, the buses do look good in the Transpeak livery.

Whoops! Sorry about that, thanks for putting the right link it

The bus does look very good, it's great to see Centrebus investing in this quite frankly abandoned route!

RE: High Peak
Saw 789 out today on the TP still in all white from when it was at Centrebus Leicester. According to the Facebook page, it'll be repainted soon into the green TransPeak livery.
