10:00 - 16:30

We can’t wait to welcome you back to Bus Fest – one of our busiest and most popular events of the year!

Whether you’re planning your journey, booking your tickets or looking forward to hopping aboard a vintage bus, you’ll find everything you need to know right here.

How do I get the free shuttle bus to the museum?

Our partner organisation, Angus Transport Group, will be running a FREE shuttle bus service to the museum throughout the day from the south end of Whitehall Street in city centre Dundee (DD1 4AF).

The shuttle will begin at 10:10 and will run every 20 minutes. The last journey from the museum back to Whitehall Street will be at 16:40.

Please note that museum staff will not be able to provide arrival times for Whitehall Street during the event. We kindly ask for your patience, as traffic and the quirks of our much-loved vintage buses can sometimes cause delays.

Our vintage bus service is provided free of charge by the wonderful volunteers of the Angus Transport Group. Please treat the volunteers with kindness and respect and enjoy the service they work so hard to provide.

Please note that the buses used on the shuttle service will be vintage and may not be suitable for those with additional accessibility requirements. There will be disabled parking at the museum for those with additional needs.

We love our furry visitors at the museum! All well behaved good boys and girls are welcome in the museum.

A massive thank you to everyone who supported our Crowdfunder campaign to raise funds to restore the damaged bricks at Maryfield Tram Depot.

Since the launch over 500 supporters have helped us raise just over £34,000 including Gift Aid which will all go towards the restoration work to create a permanent home for Dundee Museum of Transport.

If you missed the Crowdfunder campaign you can still make a donation to support our efforts.

Every penny raised will contribute to the costs of restoring the Tram Depot giving you the opportunity to play an important role in the future of this significant historical landmark.

🚋❤️ Back in January 2014, Dundee Museum of Transport shared some very special news - after months of planning, Dundee’s last surviving horse-drawn tram had finally returned home.

The tram had spent nearly a century sitting in a back garden in Perth before being carefully transported back to Dundee.

This photograph captures it at the time of its recovery, long before the restoration work visitors can see taking place today.

More than 12 years later, Horse-Drawn Tram No. 24 remains one of the most important pieces in our collection and an incredible surviving link to Dundee’s transport history.

Its journey from a Perth garden to Market Mews - and eventually onwards to its future home at the historic Maryfield Tram Depot - is quite a story in itself.

Who remembers when news of the tram’s return to Dundee first broke in 2014?

🚌❤️ There’s not long to go until Dundee Bus Fest returns to Dundee Museum of Transport!

🏍️📸 A lot can change in 12 years. This photograph takes us back to the old entrance of Market Mews during one of our Motorcycle Days back in 2019!

Looking back at photographs from a while back really shows how much has changed at Dundee Museum of Transport - while Market Mews has remained at the centre of so many memorable events.

As we continue towards our next chapter at Maryfield Tram Depot in 2027, we’ll be sharing more photographs and memories from our years here over the weeks ahead.

Do you remember visiting the museum during Motorcycle Day? 🏍️

🔎🚋 Sometimes it’s the smallest details that tell the biggest stories.

A destination name. An old photograph. A piece of track. A familiar street on a map. Each gives us another glimpse into a time when the sound of trams was part of everyday Dundee life.

That’s what Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered is all about – looking beyond the vehicles to uncover the stories of the city and people around them.

How much of Dundee’s tram story do you know?

Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered is now open at Dundee Museum of Transport.

The exhibition is kindly supported by the @dundeehet.

📍 Dundee Museum of Transport, Market Mews
📆 Until October
⏰ Open daily, 10am–4.30pm
🎟 Included with standard museum admission.

🚌❤️ CALLING ALL BUS ENTHUSIASTS!

🚛❤️ As we look back over 12 years at Market Mews, we’ve found plenty of photographs showing just how much has happened at Dundee Museum of Transport over the years.

This one takes us back to our Truck Extravaganza in 2019, when Market Mews was packed with an impressive collection of trucks and visitors enjoying one of our special event days.

Look closely and you might notice a few differences from the museum you know today — even the Dundee Museum of Transport signage has changed since this photograph was taken!

Events like this have created so many great memories at Market Mews over the past 12 years, and we’ll be digging through the archives to share plenty more over the coming weeks.

Were you at Truck Extravaganza in 2019?

❤️🚋 Does someone in your family remember Dundee’s trams?

With Dundee’s final trams running in 1956, there are still people who can remember seeing them travelling through the city – and those memories are an important part of Dundee’s story.

Why not visit Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered together? Explore the exhibition and see what memories of old Dundee come flooding back.

🏛️📸 Throughout September, we are dipping into the archives and sharing moments from Market Mews as we celebrate the place that has been our home for the past 12 years!

This photograph was shared on 25 February 2014, as work continued to get Dundee Museum of Transport ready for visitors. The main sign had gone up, the roller doors had been painted and the entrance had been made much easier to spot with its new triangular wooden canopy.

It’s amazing to look back at how the building appeared at the start of our time here - especially knowing just how much would go on to happen within these walls over the years that followed.

🚏🚋 If Dundee still had trams today, where would you be getting off?

Maryfield? Hilltown? Downfield? Dundee’s tramways once connected communities across the city and were part of everyday life for generations.

At Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered, you can discover the routes, destinations and neighbourhoods served by the network – and see how Dundee changed around it.

Tell us in the comments: where would your Dundee tram stop be?

🚨WHAT DOES YOUR MEMBERSHIP MEAN DURING OUR MUSEUM CLOSURE? 🚨

As we prepare to close the doors of our current museum on 31 October 2026 and begin an exciting new chapter, we know some of you may be wondering what will happen to your membership while the museum is closed.

Your membership is more than a ticket to the museum — it’s a way of supporting our work and your community.

By being a member, you are supporting a local museum, our collections, our volunteers and the amazing work we do in your community. Your membership helps us continue to share stories, preserve our heritage, support events and activities, and keep the spirit of the museum going — even when our doors are closed.

During our closure, we’ll be working behind the scenes on the new museum, caring for our collection and planning plenty of ways to get out into the community. You’ll still see us out and about!

This next period is incredibly important for us, and we need your support more than ever. If you are already a member, we really hope you’ll choose to keep your membership and continue to be part of our journey towards our new museum at the restored Maryfield Tram Depot.

Your continued support genuinely makes a difference. 💙

Thank you for being part of our museum family — we couldn’t do it without you.

💙 THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR FIRST FORD DAY A DAY TO REMEMBER! 💙

What a day! Despite the Scottish weather doing its very best to test everyone, our very first Ford Day was an incredible success — and that is entirely thanks to the amazing people who made it happen.

A huge THANK YOU to Ford Elite for all your hard work in organising the event. We simply couldn’t have done it without you!

A special thank you also goes to the Pre 67 Ford Club, Capri Club Scotland, Dundee Ford Centre, all the other clubs who joined us, and every single wonderful Ford owner who braved the weather and brought along their fantastic cars. 🚗💙

This might have been our first Ford Day… but it certainly won’t be our last! 👀

Here’s to the first of many! 🥂💙

🚗🚋 There’s plenty happening at Dundee Museum of Transport this September!

We’ve got a brilliant month ahead at Market Mews, with Military Day kicking things off on Sunday 6 September, followed by the return of Dundee Bus Fest on Sunday 20 September.

Then, on Friday 25 September, we’ll be marking a particularly special occasion with the final Dundee Motor Night at Market Mews ahead of our future move to Maryfield.

And throughout the month, you can still visit Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered, our exhibition celebrating the story of Dundee’s much-loved trams and the people, places and memories connected to them.

📍 Dundee Museum of Transport, Market Mews
🗓️ September 2026

🏛️❤️ For the past 12 years, Market Mews has been the home of Dundee Museum of Transport - a place where thousands of visitors have discovered the stories, vehicles and people behind Dundee’s transport heritage.

As we look ahead to our future home at Maryfield Tram Depot in 2027, we’ll be spending some time over the coming months looking back at the memories made here at Market Mews.

From exhibitions and special events to restorations, new arrivals and countless conversations with visitors, a lot has happened within these walls.

We’re not saying goodbye just yet - but we thought now was a good time to start celebrating the place we’ve called home for more than a decade.

🏙️🚋 Imagine Dundee without the transport we take for granted today…

Oor Trams: Dundee’s Tram Era Remembered is your chance to step back into that Dundee and discover how people travelled through a city that would have looked very different from the one we know today.

Come and experience almost 80 years of Dundee transport history at Dundee Museum of Transport.
