Buy Real Tramadol Online Aston Manor Transport Museum had a successful last running day on Sunday (October 16) before the closure of the venue at the end of the year.

“The day comprised a whole mixture of attractions – the main one being trips on 20 vintage buses all around Birmingham city centre and the outskirts of the city. We also had the usual stalls selling transport memorabilia and a café with hot meals.”

“A good time was had by all. It was really lively. A lot of people also said ‘we’re sorry we shan’t see you again’.”

“A lot of anger has been directed at the City Council on what they view as a historic part of the city,” continued Geoff, concluding that the support from people has been phenomenal.
