Autumn Bus Show

A showcase of buses from Amberley Museum’s own collection, the Southdown Omnibus collection and a number of visiting buses.

We’re pleased to announce the return of the Replica Worthing Tramocar! (BP 9822)

The Museum’s replica Worthing Tramocar has undergone an extensive restoration including engine repairs, blind replacement and a full repaint. It will be the central feature of the Bus Show and will mark the centenary of the introduction of the first tramocar to Worthing bus services in 1924.

What can visitors see and do at this event?

Watch, photograph and ride on a selection of buses from years gone by.

The earliest bus at the Museum is a 1914 petrol-electric, and there are several buses from the 1920s and 1930s. There will also be a variety of buses visiting for the day.

There will be bus rides all day, transporting visitors around the Museum grounds with either the 1914 or a 1928 open-topped bus in service (subject to weather conditions).

‘Peter’ our steam train will also be running on our narrow-gauge railway to carry passengers around the site.

Please pre-book tickets to avoid disappointment.
