Eastern Coach Works ~ 30 Years On

During January 1987 one of Lowestoft's major employers Eastern Coach Works (ECW) closed for the last time.

ECW was probably best known for its close association with Bristol Commercial Vehicles. It is expected that a large number of Bristol/ECW types will be on display at the 30 year commemoration of closure being held at the East Anglia Transport Museum on the 8th and 9th of July.

The Museum anticipates a weekend full of visiting ECW bodied vehicles from all over the country with free vintage bus services to Lowestoft and Beccles being offered. A free park and ride service will also be in operation

Further details of this event, plus this weekend's Dad's Day Out, can be found on the EATM website at eatransportmuseum.co.uk
