Bus & Truck Museum of NSW 

The Historic Commercial Vehicle Association (HCVA) was formed in 1964 by a small group of people that had an interest in road transport commercial vehicles. The Association became a not for profit Cooperative in September 1976. Since then, ranks have grown and the HCVA now operates the Sydney Bus Museum from the former Tempe tram depot. The exhibit housed at Tempe is a unique collection of our history and the concept is truly a hands on working museum.

A free vintage bus service using the famous Sydney double decker is operated on Saturdays between the Museum and Marrickville and on Sundays between the Museum and Newtown Station. The bus leaves at 10.15am and then every hour until 2.15pm.

Groups are more than welcome at the Bus Museum! School, Senior Citizens or interest group can be accommodated during our opening times or out of hours. A booking (two weeks before) is required to allow the organization of our volunteer tour guides. Group admission can be arranged on booking.
