Bowens Collapse

The Bowen Travel Group - one of the largest independent coach operators - has suffered a financial collapse.
Administrators arrived at its head office yesterday morning (Thursday).
Since then the company's website has been taken down and its telephones are not being answered.
The company - which also trades under the Yorks, Jeffs and Appleby brands - is reported to have run out of cash, and has a string of unpaid bills run up over the last couple of months.
