The Story of Going Places
Everyone has a transport story.
From school buses to first bicycles; family road trips to cross-country trains; the way we travel has always shaped us and how we live our lives. It’s one of the few truly universal experiences that connects all of us — past, present and future.
Grampian Transport Museum brings transport’s evolving histories, nostalgic tales and quirkiest innovations to life, in an award-winning collection that spans eras, countries and cultures.

You keep the wheels turning
Grampian Transport Museum is proud to be a self-funding, independent charity, with over four decades of history, a bright future ahead and the highest standards of care for our collections — but we can only do it with your continued support.
We don't receive government or local authority funding, and so everything we do is made possible by our visitors, GTM Members and supporters.
By becoming a GTM Member or 'adopting' your favourite vehicle or exhibit, you can keep transport stories alive and active for future generations — a meaningful legacy that will live long and make a very real difference.
