Action from Showbus "The greatest Show On Earth" which took place at Donington Park on a cold mostly cloudy late September Sunday.
Hundreds of buses and coaches old and new descended on the park to form a superb display.
The film features many of the late arrivals and then some of the buses
running trips around the Castle Donington area. We see a few of the buses
on display as well and the stalls and other things going on. The film ends with a few of the early departures before 4pm. It was once again a superb day which seemed to be very well attended.
Many thanks to all the organisers and staff at Donington Park and to
all the bus and coach owners who brought their vehicles for us to enjoy.
