Greater Manchester's Museum of Transport

Display Rotation

We can only display a proportion of our vehicles in the Museum of Transport at any one time, and this means that vehicles sometimes have to be moved to storage locations to allow rotation of the vehicles on display.

This list provides a guide as to which vehicles are currently away from public display, and is kept up to date with any vehicle movements.
