Information on Buses at Beamish

At Beamish Museum

This event celebrates the opening of the 1950’s town and Bus Depot.

There will be classic buses in service, linking the 1913 and 1950’s towns.

This event is supported by NEBPT and Go North East

Admission charges apply for entry to Beamish Museum.

Interesting that a page has now been set up on the nebpt website. More than likely we can view what will turn up. Beamish will more likely do the same like last year

Beamish have confirmed on the website that pre 1965 buses will run round the museum & thanks to the North East Bus Preservation Trust. Post 1965 will be on display as well

News confirmation yesterday from staff

Beamish rally will be split into two. One set of the rally will be inside the museum (hosting the 1965 buses)

Other part of the rally will be set outside the museum in the coach park (hosting the buses after 1965)

Two shuttle buses will run. One bus will run from Beamish to Chester-le-Street. The second will run from Beamish to Stanley

The North East Bus Preservation Trust have confirmed that a wrist band will be available at the price of £6.50 for the buses at Beamish event. All classic buses are welcome

More updates to the event

Beamish have confirmed over 50 buses will be attending both days. Obvious mention above that £6.50 for a wristband to enter

Yes could be some interesting scenes in Chester as the general public witness Beamish/NEBPT running a more reliable service than GNE!

Well I think we can safely say bus enthusiasts can run  bus services more reliably than the bus companies themselves!
