Various preserved buses were on display, including AEC Regent III RTs, AEC Routemasters, and an AEC Regent I, as well as modern buses currently in passenger service, such as an Alexander Dennis Enviro400MMC and a Volvo BZL. The museum itself was also open as usual and features a BYD K9E, which had previously operated on route 507. Whilst most of the buses on display operated in London, several were from other cities in the UK. There was even a preserved Volvo B10M coach from Hong Kong!
I took a video of a ride on a Dennis Dart around Weybridge [2], a ride on an AEC Regent I double-decker bus [3], a tour of the outdoor vehicle exhibit [4], a tour of the indoor museum area [5] and a ride on the Enviro200 from the museum to Weybridge station after the event [6].
I believe that company (London Country) used to run, at least partly, from my hometown of Swanley in kent. Nothing much exciting happens there so I saw this made the news!
I’ll have you for this Butler
Wow! I didn’t know this was a thing! Will definitely try to go next year if it’s running!
Brooklands is a magical place.
Looks like a great day out for any bus enthusiast.
Wonderful photos and amazing vehicles! These photos remind me of the Winkleigh bus fair here in North Devon, sadly no more.
Many years ago that company used to run the 85 Putney Bridge to Kingston.
My late father, although he spent his entire life working for car companies (or maybe because he worked for car companies), loved public transport and especially buses. He would have been very happy to see these beauties looking so good. He had a particular soft spot for single deckers. Thanks for posting (and thanks to the algorithm for suggesting this post) and bringing memories of him back.
