Some events we have taken part in during the past twelve months

The Group have been involved in a lot of events during the past year, here we take a look at some of them :

A July trip to North East collections

Sunday 3rd July
We made a trip to the NEBPS premises at Wardley to see their newly acquired Ex United Bristol FLF
Following this most interesting visit we went to the nearby premises of Tyne & Wear Bus Preservation Ltd and saw their collection.
During the visit the opportunity was taken to ride on their Scania JFT413X
