OUR BUSES

Below are three tables of buses currently in our care (listed in order of age).   If you are looking on a mobile phone, you may have to scroll horizontally as well as vertically to see all the data. 

The first table lists buses from the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s.   

The second table lists buses from the 1960s and 1970s

The third table lists buses from the 1980s and 1990s

You can download a copy of the entire list as a PDF file by clicking HERE.  (It prints out on one sheet of A4 paper).


To see "pop-up" photographs of these buses, just click on the green fleet number (if it is underlined).  If the letter "H" is included next to the fleet number, you can read a brief history of the bus on the linked pop-up.  Hopefully, most of our buses will have their history added in the coming months. 


Can you help us?  If you can help with the history of any of our buses, please contact the webmaster, Tony Salmon, by clicking HERE.  You may also want to look at the "Photographs" page of this website.  Some of the photographs have come from unknown sources.  If you spot one to which you own the copyright, please contact us and we will either credit you or remove the photograph.  Some of the photos are rather poor quality.  If you want to send us any better versions, these will be received gratefully.


If you want to see the restoration progress of some of this fleet, regular articles are published in our quarterly Newsletter, which is sent to all our members.  If you would like to receive a copy, all you need to do is become a member.  Details of how to join are on the "Membership" page of this website.
