Museum of Transport Greater Manchester 200 years of The Bus Part 2

Vintage buses and a few modern ones in Manchester feature in this movie as I visited the Manchester Museum of Transport. This was the second of a series of events to commemorate 200 years of the bus entitled "Fares Please" celebrating the 1940's and 50's and buses from the Museum were in service. They ran trips from the museum to Shudehill and special journeys on route 53 between Queens Road and Belle Vue.
I took a look inside the museum at some of the exhibits on display and vehicles which tell the history of transport in Manchester through the ages and is really well worth a visit. Some of the buses can be seen departing on trips in Corporation Street and along Queens Road. There is a brief look inside the museum at some of the displays.By way of comparison some of the current buses can also be seen out and about.
Thanks to everyone at the museum for their warm welcome and hard work in putting on this event. Take a look at their website at motgm.uk/
to see forthcoming events and how you can help with restoring Manchester 436.
