Support for Heritage Skills
The many specialist skills it takes to restore, maintain and drive the nation's historic buses and coaches will be explored in Episode 6 of The Bus Inspectors podcast, scheduled to drop early in the new year. We'll be discussing what these skills are, the importance of preserving them for the future and we'll consider how museums, preservationists and industry can work together to help.
