The Annual Irish Transport Trust Rally was held on Saturday April 26th in the grounds of the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum. A large number of buses both current and preserved attended.

The Transport Enthusiasts Club attended with Des Willis' Ex-Dublin Bus DF839 and Ex- Bus Eireann CVH29. Also Mark Byrne's Ex-Ulsterbus Bristol RE 2449.

Dublin Bus attended with EV49,AX648 and VT70. Various operators had buses on display from north and south of the border.

Ex- Dublin Bus RA255 was also attended.

It was a great rally with some changes from other years. Some local road-runs were done in various buses including Des Willis' DF839 which did two runs with passengers to Holywood.
