The Tasmanian Transport Museum Society began in 1960 when four young Hobart men persuaded the MTT to donate a Hobart tram car for preservation.
The Society was formally established in 1962, and in 1965 purchased its first railway locomotive. From these small beginnings, the Society has grown enormously, and will continue to do so.
The Tasmanian Transport Museum Society (TTMS) has two main aims:
to establish and maintain a museum in which items of interest concerning Tasmanian transport will be preserved and displayed;
to further interest and research into transport, with particular reference to Tasmania.
For questions about the museum or society membership, either phone the museum on 0428 386 843 or (03) 6272 7721 (this number during opening hours only), email or visit the website below for mail address.
