Sad to report that news emerged over the weekend that Routemaster 4 Hire is to close early next year. This business was started by David Lee 10 years ago. He combined his business acumen with his enthusiasm for former London buses. In addition to supplying his buses for weddings and corporate events they also performed in films and TV productions. He also used them on a tour from Llangollen and they were seen during the summer at Prestatyn where the town council contracted with him to run one of his Routemaster buses around the town for a few days during the summer season.
In addition to David there was a team of enthusiasts that worked with him, some of them owning their own preserved ex London buses.
This team also organised a couple of enthusiast events including the New Years Day Wrexham to Chester running day - which I am happy to find that according to Facebook appears to be still going ahead.
