The Summer of 2017 Damory- Dorset's Great Local Bus Company

This, the third programme in our Damory DVD trilogy was filmed throughout the summer of 2017 covering the Damory network. Dorset was once served by an extensive rural bus network operated by not only the large companies - Hants & Dorset, Wilts & Dorset and also Southern and Western National, but also a rich diversity of small and not so small independent operators - Bere Regis & District, Stanbridge & Crichel, Dorset Queens, Victory Tours and House of Hilton to name but a few. Over a period of time from 1993 to 2017 and for many reasons, Damory Coaches became the operator of a great many of these services, which made up a fragile tracery. This film is a tribute to the towns, villages, hamlets and staff that operated these routes over many years. The Damory tag line 'Dorset's great local bus company' is shown to good effect as the cameras of independent transport videos capture the depth of the Damory operations.
