History...

'Tinsley Tram Sheds' by Mick Rick		Keith Beeden was one of the founding fathers of the bus preservation movement in Sheffield and has been a mainstay of the development of the Museum from a small set of schoolboys in the late 1960s to a fully-fledged and respected Transport Museum today. Here he tells the story up to Easter 2007 in his own words. Click on the image to find out about the history of the museum...
