Today the Metro Owners club held a gathering at the museum. We was lucky to have the presents of Andy Walcott's NOA 462X, which has a wonderful offside periodic Austin Rover advert. #Rover #metro #austinrovermetro #mcwmetrobus

We are deeply saddened to hear the news of the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Our thoughts are with all the Royal Family at this deeply sad time, along with all the Nation.

Many thanks to everyone who attended the BCT event today. Great selection of blue vehicles (as well as the odd red...). Please feel free to share any photos, especially our Happy Hour. Use #wythallbct2022. Here a short clip from Midlands Today showing highlights of the event.

Our Isle of Man Guy Otter WMN 485 passed to James Eastwood early last year. Now no 9 has return to our collection & part of our small fleet at Statfold Country Park. The Guy chassis and mechanical units were built in Wolverhampton and the body was built by Mulliner in Bordesley Green.
