On Sunday 4 October, we are taking over Broad Street in Reading to showcase buses throughout the decades to celebrate our 125th year of operation. From the junction of West Street and Broad Street Mall, we will have buses from throughout the decades as you walk down Broad Street, finishing with one of our latest electric buses near the Oracle, decorated to celebrate our 125 years.
There will be buses and a trolleybus representing the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2020s.
There will also be a free running day with vintage buses providing trips from St Mary's Butts and following historic routes around the town.
As part of the day's entertainment, we are delighted to have music inspired by the decades the buses represent. More information on the acts will follow closer to the event.
There will also be a chance to buy commemorative memorabilia to mark our 125th year. There will be a limited edition set of commemorative mugs, including a special gold mug that will be available in the set and on its own, and a new book charting the history of the company and every bus operated over the 125 years.
There will also be other Reading Buses merchandise to buy on the day as well!
