Want a chance to get some photos at the annual HCVCA Yarra Glen Display without the crowds? Would love to ride a couple of the many restored coaches in the Driver Classics Fleet?

Gary Driver from Driver Bus Lines has once again kindly invited BCSV members (& any guests from interstate) to come along on Set-Up Saturday.

Driver Bus Lines will also provide transfers to/from the event for BCSV members on Display Day Sunday!

Both the members’ preview afternoon & display day transfer are provided free to BCSV members! New members welcome to join ahead of the display day weekend – https://bcsv.org.au/membership/

SET-UP SATURDAY
A convoy of Driver Classics heritage vehicles will leave the Driver Bus Lines depot at 45-53 Ricketts Rd, Mt Waverley at 1.00pm on Saturday 8th November. Arrive by 12:45pm.

A second stop in Lilydale will also be available upon request.

Upon request on the day, there can be opportunity to change vehicles in Lilydale or Coldstream on the way – chat to Gary and the other drivers before departing Mt Waverley.
