Chester Heritage Tours | |||||
BACKGROUND HISTORY
Chester Heritage Tours operated their last tour of the city on Wednesday 30 May 2018. Mike Edwards started this business in 2005 by forming the company Chester Heritage Tours Limited and purchasing 946WAE, the only vehicle used. As is evident from the name of the firm the principal work of the bus was tours around Chester. The vehicle was also hired for weddings, TV and filming and other private functions. Mike Edwards placed this touching message on his webpage (now closed)- "Sorry everyone, but Chester Heritage Tours has reached the end of the road. Thank you to everyone who made my dream come true" He is offered the very best of wishes for his retirement or perhaps ..... his next project!! It appears that in total three such replicas were produced based on Bedford chassis. B1934 (DFB704B) is with Nottingham Heritage Vehicles and B1349 (DET720D) is at Beamish Open Air Musuem. |
