Tavistock in
Sunny June |
 |
Tavistock on Sunday 24 June was a perfect ‘Day Out
in 1968’. An authentic line-up of vehicles created
a nostalgic scene within this fine stannary town.
Some 1,900 passenger journeys were made across the
unspoilt scenery of Dartmoor. A few programmes are
still available including extensively
illustrated histories of local bus operations. |

Thames Valley &
Reading Success
|
 |
Our Thames
Valley & Reading Running Day proved to be a great
success, with over 4,500 passenger journeys
recorded. Thames Valley and Reading Corporation
vehicles were joined by those from neighbouring
fleets to recreate routes including those of the
former Reading Trolleybus network, closed 50 years
ago. |

 |
Our 2018
Penzance Running Day resulted in 6763 passenger
journeys, a record for our events to date. Thanks go
to all our volunteers and to our friends at Cornwall
Bus Preservation Society who, working together,
brought a huge amount of interest and happiness to
South West Cornwall in April. |
