Store Open Day & Coventry Corporation Bus Centenary

We had a fantastic day on Saturday 12th May, as well over 1000 people flocked to our off-site stores to spend time exploring the stores (where around half of the collection is kept) and enjoying a spectacular display of vintage buses, who were lined up in commemoration of 100 years of Coventry Corporation Transport.

A selection of photographs from the day are below, and huge thanks must go to the following for making the day such a massive success:

Roger Burdett and all of his friends and colleagues at the Coventry Corporation Transport Society for doing an amazing job in organising the bus display and marshalling on the day.

Friends of Coventry Transport Museum for acting as volunteer marshalls on the day.

Steven Knight for his help in promoting the event.

James Davies, Estate Manager at Wigley Contracts for his support and flexibility in allowing us to use the site in this unusual way for the day!

Roger, Jim & Maureen Bailey

All staff at Coventry Transport Museum and many other people who supported the event in a whole range of ways.
