VISIT TO EAST ANGLIA TRANSPORT MUSEUM

London Transport Museum and its Friends are very pleased to be supporting the East Anglia Transport Museum on their forthcoming 'London Weekend'. The Friends have sponsored  taking three Museum vehicles to the event:  K424; 351x, the tram tractor; and LT 1076. Vehicles from The Tramway Village at Crich and the London Bus Museum have also been invited to attend.

Many Friends have asked if we can arrange a tour around this special event. Your wish is our command!

This meal will be served in two sittings in the Museum’s canteen.
