Sunday 19 April 2015 (0936) - Stagecoach (East Midland) 34688 (PX05 EKY) seen loading in Hardy Street, Worksop as the 0938 service 21 to Doncaster. A Plaxton Pointer style Dennis Dart SLF built by Alexander Dennis new May 2005. The building in the background is part of the Stagecoach garage which opened in July 1957 when East Midland Motor Services was owned by British Electric Traction. The garage also acted as a bus arrival and departure station. In more recent years this activity has been moved to the surrounding streets outside the building and in the near future will be moved yet again when a new bus station opens at Watson Road/Newcastle Street in summer 2015.
