The BEST Bus Museum

I recently had a chance to visit the BEST Bus Museum at Anik Depot. The collection of artifacts here was simply mind blowing. There are replicas of trams, buses and old tickets.

Check out photos for this museum

I have many fond memories of travelling in BEST buses and trams from early 50s. I remember (probably during late 60s or early 70s) a BEST bus driver driving Leyland ( Tiger?) bus with his left leg resting on the dash board and changing gears in a pre-set gear box. It was much later I came to know of these clutch-less buses.

Need to check out this museum.
BEST has been my favorite mode of transport ever since I started traveling on my own.
