Showbus

[TinnedPeaches]

Does anyone know to any local bus or coach operators taking passengers to Showbus in Duxford this year? I have a rather significant birthday approaching this month and promised I'd treat myself, but as part of my treat I don't want to drive down there.

I read that Hansons are going.

List of companies buses going

[TinnedPeaches]

Thanks for the list to the link, Tom. I checked this out a few weeks ago when there were far fewer companies listed. I know that Dudley's Coaches are running an official trip, but no pick-ups anywhere near me. I also contacted central Buses to see if they were taking passengers, but they never got back to me.

See no NXWM buses only older ones did you not try to get one to showbus tony?

There's often an AG bus and a WA bus at Sjowbus. 4533 & 4534 have both been I think.

Surprised NX aren't taking a hybrid or B7RLE.

And a wealth of BCT and WMPTE buses too for those of us who prefer our buses in blue and cream.

Hopefully I'll be able to go depending on work. Maybe I'll see some of you there.
