Saturday, 15 September saw Metroline open the doors of its Pemberton Gardens, Holloway garage to the public and Kris Lake went along to see what was on show.
Metroline says that the objective of the event is to raise as much money as possible for charities, including those supporting Cancer Research and the British Heart Foundation. Admission was by programme, priced at £2.50, available on the day at the garage door. As well as a display of vehicles, including some of the operator’s newest and some dating back to the 1950s, there were stalls selling transport memorabilia and refreshments.
As in previous years there was the opportunity to ride on heritage vehicles as well as new buses around the local area.
