When I first got into transport blogging nearly eight years ago, I travelled around my local cities and towns within a 30 mile radius from home gathering images to write and post about.
Bakewell featured in a number of early posts but for whatever reason has not done so in recent times.
A busy town and an important agricultural centre that has developed as a tourist attraction in its own right.
Many of those tourists arrive by bus and coach.
There are terminating services from Derby, Chesterfield and Sheffield. A through service from Buxton to Derby and a wide variety of routes serving local villages.
Coaches come from far and wide.
My favourite spot is just outside the ‘Rutland Arms Hotel’ with buses and coaches coming from three directions. Brilliant!
The operator who provides most local services and the one to Chesterfield is ‘Hulleys of Baslow’ who this year celebrate the 100 years that have passed since Henry Hulley founded the company in 1921.
Regular reader/viewers of my blog will know that the vehicles of ‘Hulleys’ have appeared on my blog on many occasions this year.
