Y100HOB Hulleys of Baslow 21

Volvo B8RLE with MCV Avora body near Bakewell Derbyshire 29th April 2021. The latest and newest acquisition for decades celebrates the company's Centenary year complete with a suitable cherished registration 'Y100 HOB Year 100 Hulleys of Baslow' very apt.

On the 29th April 1921 Derbyshire-based Hulleys of Baslow purchased their first bus. Regrettably 100-years later plans to celebrate the event formally have for the time being been dashed by COVID, although the company do intend to organise something in the future.

However, a very last minute decision resulted in their route 170/X70 (Bakewell & Chesterfield), be operated on 29th April 2021 in part by three of their ‘celebrities’, plus duplicates of two locally preserved buses.
