Hop on and hop off those classic red Daimlers!

town centre

The classic red Daimlers which once serviced Northampton’s bus routes will again be laid on to transport heritage visitors back in time – and of course to attractions in the West Northamptonshire area. Northampton Transport Heritage are delighted to once again be working with West Northants Council for the ever-popular Heritage Open Days event which is a firm favourite with townsfolk and visitors alike. NTH will be providing classic local buses that will be used on Heritage bus routes from George Row in the town centre that will connect participating heritage events, buildings and organisations to enable people to choose which heritage place they wish to visit and at the same time arriving in style aboard a classic heritage bus! Final details are still being compiled and will be available near the time but we look forward to seeing you all again soon for a trip back in time!
