WIRRAL Transport Museum played host to this year’s Wirral Bus & Tram Show.

The event featured the historic collection of buses, cars and lorries, as well as a model trams and trains.

Visitors were also able to take rides in vintage buses and tramcars.

The transport collection was created as a celebration of Birkenhead being the first place in Europe to adopt a street tramway.

The museum’s trams date from as early as 1901, still making the short journey from Woodside to the museum.

The show also had a series of displays and sale stands at the museum on Taylor Street, as well as at Pacific Road Arts Centre and in the car park of the Cheshire Lines Building.
