Not quite correct. The new timetables (effective 23/10) are now on the Derbyshire County Council public transport website.

I'm afraid I don't know the old routes well enough to comment on what's changed...perhaps someone else can?

Did notice that the evening services are now badged as route 68B, running half-hourly.
