Friends of King Alfred Buses
LOOKING AHEAD IN 2022
The Original King Alfred Buses Running Day having taken place on Bank Holiday Monday 2nd May 2022 we now look ahead to our next event.
On Saturday/Sunday 10/11 September we will again participate in Winchester Heritage Open Days with a vehicle display on the Saturday and free vintage bus services on the Sunday. More details will be available in due course.
Meanwhile, King Alfred vehicles will feature at various events during the coming summer, including a free vintage bus service based on the Watercress Line's Alresford station on Sunday 5th June.
Pictures of a previous Heritage Open Days event on 19th September 2020 can be seen by clicking on King Alfred and then going to the Picture Gallery as can the return to service of renovated Leyland Panther UOU 419H on 3rd January 2022.
The task of keeping our unique collection of historic vehicles in running condition continues and as a registered charity we welcome donations to help keep them on the road! Indeed, our costs for fuel, premises, bank charges and printing to name just a few are showing signs of rapid increase. For only £25 you can become a Friend of King Alfred Buses.
