Those are the buses that used to run from Duffield to Wirksworth (starting from Derby). The ones I used to catch when I was young. They were the Midlands equivalent of the Routemaster in the late thirties and survived in service until the fifties. Unfortunately none were preserved.
Afterthought: Partly responsible for the demise of the line. Only the quaries kept it open.
