The second Isle
of Wight Classic Buses, Beer and Walks
Weekend. |
 |
The Isle of Wight
branch of CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale)
and the IW Bus Museum joined forces
for this weekend event which featured
an extensive network of free bus routes. |
 |
Buses stopped at
a wide selection of pubs and walks were
organised from many of them. |
 |
The two main departure
points, Newport Quay and the Ryde bus
museum, also included static vehicle
displays. |
 |
On these two pages
there are photos of many of the vintage
buses in service and on display during
both days. |
