Sunday 14th March was our Spring Open Day, and over 200 guests, along with several visiting buses, enjoyed the event. Our thanks are due to Savills plc for allowing us to use the Ravensthorpe Retail Park car park, to Arriva Yorkshire who provided the shuttle bus; a Volvo demonstrator, BG59 FWP, to all who operated trades stands and to the Aire Valley group for bringing GWT 630 and HLW 159. Thanks are also due to the Museum members who toiled from first light to have the venue ready, but most of all to everyone who came along to spend their money and support the event.

Unfortunately, the Optare City Pacer found the 200-yard journey back from the Retail Park a bit too much and a happy band of volunteers are seen pushing it off the gyratory before the area became gridlocked!

HELP!

We have received a plea from the City of Portsmouth Preserved Transport Depot, who are restoring a PD1 dating from 1947. If anyone can help with a radiator or seats, please contact them through their website - click HERE

Our next Open Day will be on Sunday 14th November 2010. Will you be there? We will be participating in the Arriva Tour on Sunday 23rd May, and "Ethel" (EHL 344, our Leyland Tiger from 1952) will be visiting Grange Moor Primary and Ravensthorpe Infants' schools during March to show the children how public transport used to be.
