The WHOTTThe West Country Historic Omnibus & Transport Trust vision is to establish a museum devoted to the history and development of commercial and public road transport in the region.  We are rigorously searching for a site that offers the best potential and is easily accessible.  Meanwhile our LeylandLeyland Bus was a British bus manufacturer. It emerged from the Rover Group (formerly British Leyland) as a management buyout of the bus business. It was subsequently acquired by Volvo Buses in 1988 and the name finally disappeared in 1993 Panther saloon acts as our mobile museum, offering a wide range of information about the WHOTT as an organisation, as well as staging exhibitions.  The Trust has eighteen vehicles in its care, covering a period 1938 to 1994, including traditional half-cab single and double-deck buses, luxury coaches, minibuses and a commercial vehicle.  It also has a growing archive facility that can be visited by appointment.
