A real transport anorak

I remember the old 45 route which ran from Pond Street to Totley.

Suffolk road, Queens road, Wolsley road, Abbeydale road and south.

naah, just got a sort of alzheimers. (brain fog)

I can remember what i did forty-odd years ago, and our post codes for the properties where I have lived over 43 years, and what bus you caught to which districst when I was a kid... but ask me what I had for breakfast:- phfft! no chance! my short-term memory is shot!

There where also early morning workers busses on some of the routes. They tended to be prefixed with a 7.

I remember specifically 769 and 732

Im the same, my dad has given me a load of the old wombwell routes, which i have passed on but then he did use to drive them loL.

THere wher also the 2?? routes.

They tended to be sheffield to somewhere over the boundary routes.

219 sheffield - dinnington via the 23 bus route to woodhouse mill ( i think)

221 sheffield - treeton ( i think again)

277/8 doncaster ?

206/207 also ran to Dinnington, by various routes. 208 ALSO ran to Dinnington, by yet another route, but wasn't run by SYPTE.

260, Sheffield - Westfield: 261, Sheffield - Killamarsh: 262, Sheffield - Eckington. Used to be my buses home. Later replaced by the X51 and X52, which were in turn replaced by the 21 route.

And you're right. Routes 1-99 were routes within the (old) city limits - apart from non-SYPTE buses like the 53 to Mansfield, 85 to Worksop; routes 100-199 were Rotherham buses; routes 200-299 were Sheffield buses than across the boundary.

The 88 did turn junction of Holme Lane and Rivelin Valley Rd.

55 Crosspool to Leopold St

54 Norfolk Arms at Rivelin Dams - Crosspool - Leopold St

44 Leopold St - Crosspool - Bamford

94 from Adlington Road Parson Cross to Vulcan Road.

120 from Adlington Road to Norfolk Bridge.
