Our Mission.
The Manitoba Transit Heritage Association's mission is to collect and preserve vintage buses and memorabilia for historic purposes; to create a transit museum for display of buses and memorabilia; and to provide restored heritage transit vehicles for public benefit through displays, parades and tours.
The operating vintage classic bus fleet is the heart of the MTHA’s museum collection. As a mobile museum, we display our buses by offering visits to senior centers, schools and also participating in community festivals, parades and local car shows. We also provide our vintage vehilces for appearances in movies and television.

The vintage buses are available for movie, television show and commercial production as either main focus or backdrop.
Our team welcomes inquiries from the media about the vintage bus collection and general public transportation history.
