Bus entering turning circle, Beam Hill
Arriva Midlands 2008, a Dennis Dart/East Lancs EL2000 that began life with Midland Red North, arrives at the terminus of route 13 from Anglesey Road via Burton town centre. At this time, local services around Burton and Swadlincote were mainly operated with step entrance Darts, several of which were from this batch that had originally been based in Shrewsbury and Cannock. This turning circle was situated between two sides of a crossroads; since this picture was taken, the junction has become a roundabout, so the turning circle is now merely a large layby. On the right is the car park for the Beacon Hotel pub.
