The transport museum is also home to the largest collection of battery electric road vehicles, including over 30 electric milk floats and bread vans from operators such as the Co-op, Midland Counties and Birmingham and Handsworth Dairies HALL 1 - situated in front of the admission kiosk as you enter, shows how public transport enabled people to get out and about, plus plenty of insights into the operating and manufacturing sides of the industry. The Art Depot area contains lots of examples of bus company art and photography. HALL 2 - situated to the rear of the cafe, contains the Battery Electric vehicles. Don't miss these gems at the back of the site, including the largest collection of restored battery electric vehicles in the world, and probably the largest Birmingham coat-of-arms in existence, set in stone outside the main entrance.

This is where volunteers restore and maintain Wythall's collection ranging from immaculate examples to those which are almost total wrecks.

Sadly I cannot make it - have already booked for the 3 day Silverstone Classic Racing festival that weekend, which oddly is on Fri, Sat and Sun, but not the Bank Holiday Monday!
