WestFest photographs added to website

Some photographs from the WestFest event that took place on Sunday 10 June 2012 have now been added to the Event photos 2012 section on our website.

   

Overgate exhibition photographs added to website

A collection of 24 photographs from our extremely successful exhibition at Overgate, Dundee on 2 June 2012 has now been added to our Event photos 2012 section.

This event not only marked the official launch of our new exhibition trailer but allowed us to display many new exhibits acquired and restored by the Museum.

We were also delighted when The Lord Provost's Youth Parade made a detour though our Overgate display and some photographs of the parade are included in our gallery.

Many thanks to everyone who attended on the day and continue to help us as we strive to open a permanent Transport Museum in the former Maryfield Tram Depot.

Museum confirms temporary premises in Dundee

Dundee Museum of Transport is pleased to announce that we have acquired temporary premises at Market Mews on the corner of Market Street and Broughty Ferry Road near the centre of the city.

These temporary premises will allow us to display some of the transport-related memorabilia we have already amassed whilst we still pursue our ultimate goal of moving in to the former Maryfield Tram Depot in Forfar Road, Dundee.

Work is already underway on the temporary premises to prepare them for us to be able to move in and open to the public and we are extremely grateful to everyone who have assisted us with this.

As well as the indoor space there is also a lot of outdoor space that may be suitable for vehicle gatherings or other special events.

In the meantime we will continue with our planned events for July and August and hope you will manage to come along and support us.

Official opening of our new mobile exhibition trailer

Dundee Museum of Transport will be unveiling its new mobile exhibition trailer at Overgate, Dundee on Saturday 2 June 2012.

The event starts with a pipe band around 11:30am and the official opening will take place around 12 noon with Joe FitzPatrick MSP.

We will have a number of vehicles on display with many other photographs and transport-related memorabilia to view.

We look forward to welcoming you to our fist promotional event of 2012.
