Founded in 1939, we have grown into the largest electric railway museum in the world.

The department is run by volunteers, and we are always looking for more to join our team! Message us

Here is a close look at our 1982 Flyer D901 bus, MBTA #9471. This bus was a revenue passenger vehicle from when it was delivered in 1982 until 1996 when it was converted into a mobile emergency shelter for first responders and victims at emergency scenes.

We acquired bus #9471 from the MBTA in 2016 and have kept it in operating condition, it is currently awaiting a few minor repairs before being driven again. Please enjoy the pictures!

If you would like to help us out with the bus collection, you can do so by donating to the museum’s bus department (Fund #970) or if you prefer hands-on work we are always looking for more volunteers!!

Good morning, and we’re back to Monday!

A little more to share from last weekend…after we washed Eastern Mass 702/3550 on Saturday evening, we gave 1974 Golden Gate Transit GMC T8H-5308A #870 the same treatment the next morning. We pressure washed the entire bus from front to back and top to bottom. We also did a little interior work and put the rear seat back together. It now gleams in the sunlight again for the first time in a few years….the roof at the rear end looked like a forest floor before we cleaned it!

Keep an eye on our page for more posts coming up!

Good morning and happy Friday!

While we were at the museum last weekend we checked in on our buses(and Toronto streetcar) in the display area and changed a few rollsigns around. We plan on utilizing our pressure washer on some of these buses very soon so we also assessed which ones need it the most.

Keep following our page for more good stuff!

Here’s another one of the 1963 Lausanne trailer being towed out of North Riverside. This vehicle is due to go back to Switzerland sometime in the future to join the other half that we used to have (trackless trolley #653).

Good morning, happy Thursday!

Now for a little more content from Saturday morning….We got our 1963 Lausanne, Switzerland trackless trolley trailer unit #950 moved from next to our Riverside carbarn over to the entrance driveway of the new bus display area. It is now out of our way for the Riverside Carhouse 2.0 project. The coach trailer is due to go back to Switzerland at some point in the future to re-join the motorized half, so having it in it’s new spot also makes it much easier for the trucking company to rig and load it.

And no, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you…both the front and rear axles of this trailer can turn! Even we were surprised to see that!

Stay tuned, as we have even more good stuff on the way!

Good morning everyone!

Okay, just one more post for Eastern Mass Street Railway 702/3550…

One more thing we did was we emptied out the interior of the bus of all the trash and spare parts that were stored inside of it. The bus is completely safe for the public to view inside and out now, all that’s left to do to is sweep the floor and wipe down all the seats and surfaces inside! We plan on doing this the next time we are all up at the museum provided we have enough time to get it done.

Keep an eye on the page, we have plenty more to share!

Museum volunteer Eric Gilman pressure washing the rear roadside corner of our 1961 Eastern Massachusetts Street Railway Fishbowl bus on Saturday afternoon. Seeing all the thick grime come right off the bus is so satisfying to watch!
