If you would like to become involved with the Museum of Transport, you can do this by joining the Greater Manchester Transport Society.

The Society magazine requires regular input of fleet news and articles, small exhibits and archives have to be catalogued and displayed, etc. The Society organises regular open days, Festivals and the Rally all of which take considerable organisation and manpower.
