Stagecoach Opens the Doors of Dunfermline Depot on Saturday 19 May

This May, the Stagecoach bus depot on St Leonards Street in Dunfermline marks 100 years of existence! Initially a functioning tram depot, then bus depot, the garage has been servicing Fife for a whole century. To celebrate this milestone, Stagecoach are opening the garage doors for a running day, packed full of heritage fleet displays and family activities on Saturday 19 May.

This will give our customers insight into how a depot is run day to day, learn more about their local buses past and present, with fun activities for the whole family to enjoy."
