Aldridge Transport Museum
Displaying the legacy of road transport in the West Midlands
Aston Manor Road Transport Museum
What to expect at our museum...
A wide range of vehicles
Buses
Commercial Vehicles
Private Cars
Transport Memorabilia
... All with a West Midlands connection.
You will also see vehicles in various stages of restoration, and we intend to have many of these back to roadworthy condition soon.
The Museum is a charity and is entirely self-funded and run by volunteers, so, if you have enjoyed your visit to us or would like to support our restoration projects, we'd love it if you'd consider making a donation to us!
Any amount would be greatly appreciated, and would go a long way towards keeping our museum running and getting even better for you in the future.
