Following a post on Phil Parkers Blog about the Lincolnshire Road Transport Museum (click here for that) I knew Mrs. Woody would want to visit (possibly if there was nothing else left to do on a wet Sunday afternoon and if she didnt know where we were going) so creating a surprise for her I just said we were going out and off we went today! I must admit that I had never heard of the place before but it is one of those hidden gems tucked away but well worth hunting out!
It is not only full of buses, lorries, cars and motorcycles, but the walls and any free floor space have the most amazing display of memorabilia and information.
They carry out their own maintenance in the workshop which is very tidy and organised. Must mention that at the Rocks By Rail Museum!
There are a lot of bicycles around the walls with this being about the most modern but I recall it!
Equally I also recall this particular bus that I travelled on many times!
And I also recall as a lad wanting so badly to be sat behind the wheel of a double decker bus just like this!
I also wanted a Ford Capri and eventually had four of them over time!
There is so much I have not shown here and I will be taking Mrs. Woody back as I am sure I did not see everything and that Mrs. W will also definitely want to return! At £5 each admission what a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon - check out the website

If I’d known you were coming I’d have baked a cake …
ReplyDeleteA nice bit of cake! Now we are talking! Unfortunately the museum had no catering facilities for the provision of cake but it has a lot of other things to make up for that. Do I take it you have some involvement in the museum?
DeleteNo. But our postal address includes the word “Lincoln”. 😉
ReplyDeleteMine includes the word 'Prison'! A cake with a file would therefore be useful!
ReplyDeleteMany apologies. Been MIA and AWOL. Hope you have been earning time off for good behaviour in my absence.
ReplyDeleteWhat's good behaviour??? Trust that you will return at some point or should we be calling International Rescue??? I understand that the new improved IR is now a no strings organisation!
