We are pleased to announce a new exhibit at the Sydney Bus Museum, that will be open from tomorrow.
With support from Bus NSW, Transport Heritage NSW and Inner West Council the Sydney Bus Museum has been able to digitise and showcase the immense Ken Magor bus photo collection.
Ken Magor captured buses between the 1930s and 1980s, his photography offered a rare glimpse into everyday working life across New South Wales, from buses in depots to out on the main street, and the streescapes buses traversed to connect communities and towns.
Magor had an extraordinary archive of 100,000 photos and 250,000 negatives, preserving not only buses but also trains, ships and scenes of daily city life. Carefully selected images from his vast collection are now on display at the Sydney Bus Museum for all to see.
When you enter the museum, head toward the Sydney Olympics Bus, m/o2000 and you will notice a display wall with Olympic Memorabilia, the Ken Magor collection is on the otherside of this wall. We will be working to expand and rotate this through time.
The Sydney Bus Museum is open tomorrow from 10am to 4pm.
