Friends of King Alfred Buses (FoKAB) will be supporting the nationwide Heritage Open Days event in Winchester on 15 September. “The three themes for this year’s events, Routes – Networks – Connections, could have been set specifically for our participation,” said FoKAB chairman James Freeman. “Once again, we will be supporting the Heritage Open Days on Sunday 15 September with a grand display of our unique collection of King Alfred buses and coaches at St Catherine’s park & ride site between 0900 and 1030, followed by another of our renowned classic running days, when the King Alfred buses will be providing a range of free rides to the villages around the city between 1100 and 1700hrs.”
In addition, the group’s Leyland Atlantean open-top double-decker HOR 590E will be running a free shuttle service between Winchester Broadway and Hyde Street for the Hyde900 celebrations on both Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 September.
Another innovation this year will be a special ‘Poetry Bus,’ leaving the Broadway on the Sunday at 1100hrs. There will be poetry readings as the bus takes a trip westwards to Crawley and back.
