Other buses & coaches
Our collection includes buses from the greater Midlands area and other vehicles that are .... well, simply interesting!
Rare buses such as the Guy Otter plus exotica such as Barton's Leyland PD1 fit in here.
Please note that some vehicles are on display in our 'reserve collection' at Stafold Barn, near Tamworth. Others may be offsite attending rallies or other events. If you plan to visit to see a specific vehicle, always check beforehand.
