It will have been nice to see the vehicle, to see it, Nice  Big Grin
Perhaps Henry Cooper would bid for the 74 or 808 when they are up for renewal. GNE will probably be keeping the Hexham contracts but maybe the electric buses could transfer over to Henry Cooper and they could run the services? Be nice to see them operated by a Northumberland operator.

I've never actually been to Hexham depot.

Highly doubt they will. They seem to be more for School work and a contractor service work (that being the 392)
Last day of Henry Cooper Coaches operating the 392 today. No services will now be operated by them.
Past few weeks Henry Coopers have been operating the 436 service in Morpeth, which is Green Mountain Travel

Ive spotted it a few times when I've got back and forth.
That will explain why i saw a Henry cooper's volvo eclipse in morpeth bus station. i thought it was a school trip or something
Eclipse OBR297 has been reregistered NL60AAY seen on rail replacement yesterday. Wonder if it is due replacement soon

Strange they've kept the Henry Cooper livery. Doesn't look too bad actually. Difficult to catch because the services are infrequent.
