					The main event, The Barry Festival of
					Transport, took place on 12 June 2022
					with a display of visiting historic cars,
					motorcycles, buses and commercial
					vehicles on display together with buses
					from the CTPG collection at Barry Island.
					The Depot was also open to allow visitors
					to view other vehicles and other exhibits.
					The Group's sales stand had available for
					purchase models, photos, books and
					other items of transport interest and this
					was supplemented by items for sale from
					other organisations. A free shuttle bus
					service was provided between Barry
					Island and The Depot also from a nearby
					car park to The Depot. An open top bus
					service also operated a circular tour of
					Barry which was a particular attraction
					for younger visitors.
					One vehicle on loan to the Charity
					attended a rally at Brislington in Bristol
					on 31July 2023.
					11 August 2023, CTPG assisted with the
					Barry 10k event by transporting runners
					before and after the race.

On Saturday 27 August 2023, major bus
operator Stagecoach held a public open
day at their branch new depot in
Cwmbran. Amongst the historic buses on
display were three owned or on loan to
CTPG.
Two former Cardiff Buses attended an
event organised by Cardiff Bus for its
current staff and their families on Sunday
26 August 2022 giving a chance for their
longer serving staff the chance to see
buses they may have driven in the past or for newer staff, some oftheir history.
2022 was the 120'" anniversary of
municipal transport operation in Cardiff
and this was marked by an event
organised by Cardiff Bus at their depot in
Sloper Road in Cardiff on 24 September
2022. This event was supported by the attendance of nine former Cardiff Buses
owned by CTPG, or in one case by a group ofCTPG members.
CTPG had also planned a Running Day at
Barry marking the Cardiff 120~
Anniversary on Sunday 11 September
2022 but this was cancelled as a mark of
respect following the passing of Her
Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Bedwas, Trethomas and Machen
Community Council held a Transport and
Industry Day at their Bedwas offices on
Sunday 18September 2022. This location
had historic transport links as it had
previously also housed the garage of the
former Bedwas 8 Machen UDC bus
operation. Two vehicles attended from
the CTPG collection including the last
double deck bus acquired by Bedwas &
Machen.
These events allowed the public to view
parts of the collection, not only in Barry
but also around other parts ofSouth East
Wales and beyond.
The collection illustrates many of the
developments that have occurred to bus
design over the years and also the
changes in the structure of the industry
brought about largely by political
changes in policy. The archive collection
also shows how technology has moved
forward in things such as ticketing and
ticket machines for example.
Much ofthis history would be lost
without the work ofCTPG.

					Cardiff Bus of Scania Bendy-bus 619
					(CN06 GDY). This vehicle ran in service
					up until the final day of Bendy-bus
					operation in Cardiff on 29 January. As
					well as representing an important part of
					the history ofthe development of buses it
					also adds another low floor accessible
					bus to the collection which enables
					people with mobility difficulties to
					participate in the free bus rides on offer
					at events.
					The Bus Depot at Barry is where many of
					the restored vehicles are displayed and
					can be viewed by the public. It is also
					where much of the restoration takes
					place thereby giving visitors an insight to
					the work that goes on to restore buses.
					Some of the progress made during 2022
					has included the repaint of City ofCardiff
					AEC Swift single decker 512(MBO 512F),
					the completion of Cardiff Bus Dennis Dart
					023 (N23 OBO) and the replacement of
					most of the external body panels in

					933), Aberdare Guy Arab LUF 14 (XNY
					416) and Red & White Bristol Lodekka
					L.358 (TAX 235) all saw significant
					progress.
					As not all of the collection can be
					accommodated within The Bus Depot at
					Barry, the inove from Barry Dock to the
					replacement secondary storage site at
					Llandow was completed early in the year
					ensuring that those vehicles not
					displayed at Barry could continue to be
					protected. The vehicles at Llandow are
					exchanged with those at Barry from time
					to time in order to va those on display.
