About us
The Dewsbury Bus Museum is owned and operated by the West Riding Omnibus Museum Trust and is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. The aim of the Trust is to preserve the transport heritage of the West Riding of Yorkshire and the surrounding areas. Some of our buses and coaches are owned by groups, others by individual members.
We are a Registered Charity, No. 702232, and virtually all of our income is derived from members' subscriptions, the proceeds of events and book sales and rental of space to members to store their own vehicles.
We do not open regularly but we hold a number events each year, some at the Museum and others in the West Riding area. Full details of all these are on the EVENTS page of this website. Also, we take our buses and coaches to other events and rallies organised by other museums and enthusiast groups.
Unfortunately, at the moment, we are unable to accommodate group or private visits to our museum. When we are able to resume, we will update this page so please keep checking.
AUTUMN RUNNING DAY
We would like to express our sincere thanks to the team at West Yorkshire Transport Heritage Trust for accommodating us at Parson Street. It was amazing that they were able to do this at suck short notice.
We would also like to thank our regular traders and the owners of the visiting vehicles who joined us for making the trip to Keighley.
Finally, we would like to thank the visitors, new and old, who joined us. We hope you had a great day too!
Here are some of the highlights....
As we were about to pass through Mirfield, it seemed appropriate to show our respects to local actor Sir Patrick Stewart who died this week aged 86.
Sir Patrick was born and brought up in Mirfield before becoming a renowned Shakespearian actor and then Captain of the Starship Enterprise.
Making her debut in preservation was the Trust's recently-acquired Volvo B10M with Plaxton Paragon body. She was new to Yorkshire Traction in 2001, initially on National Express work and subsequently on megabus. Have a look at her bio page HERE
