Vintage Bus Collection on Display UPDATE

See below for some event photos !


One of Canada's
best collection of vintage buses will be on display this Saturday, June 23rd, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the north parking apron of the former Grey Goose Garage, 301 Burnell Street.

Scenic Crusier

The Manitoba Transit Heritage Association's fleet of eleven buses date back to between 1937 and 1989, some of them built right here in Winnipeg. You may have seen one of the MTHA's vehicles at a special event but rarely are they all together in one place. (Including one bus that doesn't go on display because it's not restored yet: the last trolley bus to run in Winnipeg.)



Admission is by donation, the suggested amount is $2 per person. (See the above media release for all of the event information.) Retired bus drivers, mechanics and bus historians will be on-hand to answer all of your questions.

UPDATE: PHOTOS !! (For more see my album)
