Reading Runabout - 16 November 2025
The Buses and Routes

The Trust is delighted to invite you to our ‘Reading Runabout’ on 16th November, a vintage bus day to conclude the 2025 event season.  An invited selection of buses and coaches that once operated in the Reading area will give visitors a varied experience of bygone travel.

​

The event is centred on St Mary's Butts (RG1 2LG) with buses stopping at Reading Station (North exit).  FREE services run out and back to Tilehurst Triangle, Donkin Hill, Wokingham Road and the University campus. 

 

Feeder services will run in to Reading returning at the end of the day from Maidenhead and from Oxford (Bus Museum, Hanborough) via Seacourt Park & Ride and Wallingford.  Detailed timing will be confirmed here in due course.

​

​Information about the participating vehicles and routes is given below.  Further details---timetables and a duty chart so you can plan your day plus an article illustrating buses running in and around Reading over the decades---are included in the Souvenir Programme.  Copies can be purchased online here.

​​​​

Note: a ticket only system (free) will contol numbers riding on the 96 year old TD1 - these can be obtained from the Trust stand at St Mary's Butts on the day.
