London Bus Museum

The London Bus Museum is a collection of roughly 35 restored buses and coaches arranged in chronological order within a modern exhibition space. Visitors can walk through and inspect the vehicles to see how bus design and passenger comfort changed over time.

The museum opened in 2011 after moving from Cobham, growing from preservation work that started in 1966 when the London Bus Preservation Group began saving buses from scrap. The collection developed over decades before being established here in its current form.

The collection shows how public transport shaped London's daily life across different eras, with preserved buses, uniforms, tickets, and signs that tell the story of how people moved around the city. These objects reveal what commuting and travel meant to ordinary Londoners over time.

Admission is included with your Brooklands Museum ticket, so no separate payment is needed to enter the bus section. The exhibition space is spacious and well-lit, making it easy to move between vehicles at your own pace.

The collection holds the only surviving London World War II utility bus, a vehicle built under strict material shortages of wartime production. Also on display are the original prototype buses of the AEC Regent III RT and Routemaster models that later became standard on London streets.
