Good day out if you are interested in transport. Nice to see works in progress and finished vehicles. An interesting eclectic collection, plus model displays & entrance ticket includes bus ride.

Great place to view all types of vintage vehicles. Also a small shop area to browse and very reasonably priced cafe.Can travel on vintage buses into and around Rotherham. Also a trip to Conisborough

Great museum. It's run by very enthusiastic volunteers.If you get chance to talk to any of the 'Workshop volunteers' it's a real eye-opener on the amount of time and the dedication that people put in.

What a great place. First time I'd visited was for one of their monthly open weekends in September 2018. There was a classic car event on outside with plenty to see and take photos of. Inside the museum was an Aladdin's cave of historical transport things. From old road signs through to classic cars and buses. Old lorries and push bikes.Also open was the area where they are restoring some old buses. This is primarily a bus museum for South Yorkshire so there's a lot from the region but plenty of other things to keep you saying 'ah, I remember those cars, bikes, signs or whatever'. There's a cafe and toilets too and also a shop to buy transport related books and magazines.It's certainly a place I'll be going to again and again.

Really well run and a great day out. The staff are mostly volunteers and are really knowledgeable. The cafe is lovely and they offer a range of coffee, soft drinks and cakes.

South Yorkshire Transport Museum is an absolute hidden gem! I've lived locally for years and had seen the buses but could never find it (you turn down by the Arc car wash and then follow it to the end). It's only open for one day a month so you need to check for the weekend but every month as well as a rotating number of buses they have a different theme (have seen meccano and lego models, steam punk and 40 Christmas). The highlight of every open day is the change to ride on historic buses.The Museum is run entirely by volunteers who painstakingly restore buses and vehicles to their full glory. As well as buses they have military trucks, milk floats, scooters, bicycles, a Romany Caravan, cars a coffin transporter and an old tram. They even have a section with WWII memorabilia and a huge model train set.The staff are incredibly helpful and as they are all volunteers you can tell its a labour of love and it shows in their enthusiasm. The ladies in the cafe even make a great cup of tea and a slice of cake!With kids entry being free and adult entry relatively cheap this is a fun and educational great value day out. They even have annual memberships that cost less than an average take out! This place is definately worth and afternoon of your time.
