To celebrate 200 years of buses in Salford this month, The Museum of Transport, Greater Manchester is to feature a collection of historic local buses, two of which date back to the 1800s.
200 years ago, the UK’s first ever bus service was created in Salford by John Greenwood, who revolutionised transport services across the UK.
To mark John’s entrepreneurship in 1824, The Museum of Transport will be running a free vintage bus service in Salford on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st April.
Buses will be stopping at Salford Museum & Art Gallery at the following times:
| Running number | BE1 | BE2 | BE3 |
