Vintage bus service
Within the Tramway Society's Uppsala chapter, the emphasis is on service with vintage buses. We have seven buses available to us, and use them for service in various organised excursions. In recent years, we have provided vintage bus service connecting with Upsala-Lenna Jernväg (the Upsala-Lenna Railway) between Selknä and Fjällnora. The Vintage Tour to Linne's Hammarby also uses vintage buses. This service, and a number of other excursions, means that our activities revolve around driving, maintaining and renovating the old buses.
Lectures and excursions
In addition to all our work with vintage buses, we have meetings 2-3 times per year, in which we listen to lectures and view pictures of both modern and vintage buses and tramcars. We also organise two or three excursions to interesting transport destinations every year.
Research
Some of our members also do research on public transport in Uppsala. This work is the basis for a book about Tramways in Uppsala. The tramways were in service between 1906 and 1953.
