Some Sunday observations from TM Travel include:
Tesco Mansfield Solo YN07 SYS on the 108!!!
Merc YN54 WWU worked the last 202 (Mansfield-Buxton)
Sadly, the 202 has now been consigned to the history books (with only a replacement between Ashbourne & Buxton). Shame it's fallen victim to Derbyshire's 'bus-pass funding' cuts, as it was actually well used in the summer months! Another route changed after today is the Sunday 140 (Sandiacre-Matlock) & 174 (Matlock - Castleton), both interworked using the one bus. From next Sunday, it will only run between Ripley & Matlock.
This week also sees the end of TM routes 145, 413 & 414 - also victims of the forthcoming national bus-pass scheme.

P.S. Turns out I was both the first and last passenger on the last 202 journeys.

Not liking the single door on the model though.
You confused me thereat first, I've never seen a dual door solo!
But I do know what you mean - although I've never been on YN07SYS, I've seen its door and it looks a bit odd. If the Primos are anything to go by, I'm not even sure if such doors are safe! I've also heard talk of the doors hitting lamp-posts and breaking....
