The Northern General Transport Bus Depot enhances the rich and diverse stories we tell regarding the history of transport in the region.

The exhibit can accommodate up to eight buses and supports Beamish’s important work of passing on heritage engineering skills.

Restored buses will also transport visitors to and from The 1950s Town as part of the Remaking Beamish project. These will be either restored motor buses from the period or electric trolleybuses.
