Nottingham trentbarton father-son duo say job is 'more than just driving buses'

Driving around in bright coloured buses, bus drivers in Nottingham take thousands of passengers to and from their destinations safely every day. Whether it be Nottingham City Transport, Locallink buses or trentbarton services, the city is lucky to have such frequent transportation.

A father and son duo working for trentbarton have spoken about the best bits of their jobs - where "every day is different". trentbarton has more than 1,000 drivers and more than 400 buses - some of which have been driven by Damien Dunne, 57, and his son Patrick Dunne, 29.

It wasn't Patrick who followed in his father's footsteps as Damien has been on the roads driving for less than two weeks. Patrick, who joined trentbarton five years ago, is now a traffic officer - also known as a lead driver.
