A Nottingham City Transport bus awaits departure from the Baxter Gate stop on route 1 to Nottingham. Vehicles on this service are normally branded South Notts but presumably a suitable vehicle was not available on this occasion - although the South Notts name does appear on the destination display. South Notts was a long-established independent operator whose main route was between Nottingham and Loughborough via Gotham and East Leake. It was sold to Nottingham City Transport in 1991 taking the latter well away from its traditional operating area.
