We take a look back at five years of the Battle Bus project, restoring a vintage bus and a community programme exploring the war

Discover our new installation and meet the artist behind the forget-me-not display in the Museum, commissioned to remember the thousands of transport workers involved in the First World War

It's the final session of the Battle Bus volunteer research project. Find out how the B type buses were used during the war, and the close relationship between the drivers and their 'Old Girls'!

This blog is part of a mini-series of updates about the Battle Bus Research Volunteer Project. Find out how our volunteers are planning how they want to design their exhibition, with some helpful tips from Sau-Fun Mo, the Museum's Head of Design and Presentation.

As part of our Battle Bus project, our volunteers have explored the T.O.T magazine for insight into the use of B type buses during the war and the role of transport workers in wartime.

Join our volunteers as they explore the different forms of research they can utilise in their exploration of the B type bus.

The Battle Bus project volunteers visited the Imperial War Museum and National Army Museum to see how people interact with their exhibitions, and to start forming their own ideas on what they want to do for their project.

Join our volunteers as they begin their journey into the History of the Battle Bus; and uncover stories of transport and transport workers in WWI.
