WHAT ARE FRIENDS?
We are a group of people interested in the preservation of all or specific forms of Land Transport. This encompasses diversities such as:-
Steam Driven Vehicles
Electric means of transport
Motor Vehicles
Motorcycles and/or Bicycles
Public Transport Vehicles
Commercial and Industrial modes of Transport
In addition to this you will become an affiliated member of the Friends of Museum Africa and The Southern African Veteran and Vintage Association (SAVVA).
WHAT DO WE DO?
We assist the Curator of the Transport Museum where and when needed. This includes outings where we attempt to promote the museum to all communities, special events and activities held at the museum such as:-
International Museums’ Day & Heritage Day.
DJ Remembrance Run. (Held after the main DJ Run Motorcyle Rally. See DJ Run website Durban-Johannesburg Motorcycle Run)
London Bus Tours.
We also contribute directly to the preservation of our cultural and historical heritage.
WHEN DO WE MEET?
The Friends generally meet on the second Sunday of each month at the museum, unless other activities or events take place on the same day. Friends will be notified as to any of these activities either via e-mail or telephonically.
Additional meeting are arranged from time to time for outings/ socials of particular interest to the members.
It is also the intention of the Friends to run some of our vehicles on the second Sunday for the public.
WHERE DO OUR FUNDS GO?
All monies raised by the Friends are used specifically to benefit the museum on various projects, exhibits and/or maintenance of vehicles. The Curator also advises the committee on items that are offered to the museum for sale, these can become projects for fund raising should funding not be available.

FRIENDS OF THE MUSEUM BUS TOURS
The Friends of the JHMT hold several bus tours during the year using a 1952 RT London Bus and most are pleasantly surprised that a bus this old can offer such a comfortable ride. The old London Transport bus's fleet number is RT2634 with the registration LYF 359.
