Re: Hulleys of Baslow. Going, going...


 

Hi Jeff

High Peak have now withdrawn their 170 registration without it ever starting.

For the record, Stagecoach are using deckers on the 170 today and an E300 on the 63.

Seemingly they couldn't, as Derbyshire County Council gave notice on 13th March they were terminating all the contracts they had with Hulleys (the 63, 110/111, 172 and 173 - a PVR of 6) effective of 7th April and were seeking new providers.
