On Tour - Red Arrow

A well known and popular service operated by Trent Barton is their branded service red arrow which operates between Nottingham & Derby Every 10 Minutes and Every 30 Minutes from Derby to Chesterfield, the service would usually use branded coaches which I must say are very comfortable for those longer journeys to Chesterfield, although it has been known to see some spare trent barton solo's which have even ran on the longer route to Chesterfield...but away from the service facts, lets move onto the changes that trent barton are making to red arrow.

From 24/6/12, Trent Barton will be withdrawing their late night Friday & Saturday buses between Chesterfield & Derby.

From 24/6/12, Trent Barton are trailing a new branch to the red arrow service, the new red arrow service will run between Nottingham, Derby & Alfreton and be extended to serve Matlock & Bakewell, the only downside to this is that the route will be operating only on Sundays & Bank Holidays until September and will be a limited stopping service...but never the less its a very clever way of experimenting the usage of the route without wasting fuel on serving Matlock & Bakewell Monday - Sunday if noone is going to use it.
