What follows are the Group’s events and other rallies, etc that the Group plans to attend during the remainder of 2023.
Also the dates for our own three events in 2024.
2025 is the 150th anniversary of the operations of Bristol Tramway Co Ltd. Its first tram, horse-drawn, left Perry Road at noon on Monday 9 August 1875, bound for Black Boy Hill. Flag-waving members of the public lined the route! The company became Bristol Tramway & Carriage Co Ltd in 1887, began the use of electric trams in 1895, and later still became Bristol Omnibus Co Ltd – now First Bristol, Bath & the West
To mark the anniversary, on the quayside in front of the M Shed museum we shall have a line-up of buses which had been in service with Bristol Tramways & Carriage Co and Bristol Omnibus Co.
Some short, free bus trips will be available throughout the day.
This same arrangement will be repeated on the Sunday.
