We've dug into our picture archives to find evidence of some of them - can you recall the cream and tan double deckers - and when they used to pick up passengers in front of the Arndale Centre?

Or perhaps you have hazy memories of the experimental electric bus that ran along Doncaster's Straight Mile alongside the Racecourse in the 80s - but which never got off the ground.

We're sure a few of our pictures will conjure up some memories for you all!
