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.

Be nice to see them operated by a Northumberland operator.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.
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

Seen someone mention these before and I've always wondered are James Cooper and Sons and Henry Cooper owned by the same people or are they two different (assuming family members) companies operating effectively from the same place
Also is the third Coopers based at Bedlington related to the Cooper family above in the past (in the 50's), or is it just a fluke that there's two families with the same name operating nearby?
Anyone know? Always been curious.
Henry Cooper is operated by the Grieves family (think a Grieves married Henry Coopers daughter - https://www.henrycoopercoaches.com/history/). But all 3 companies are indeed seperate. Cooper is a common name, it's just co-incidence there is 3 operators using the Coopers names.
