Group meetings

Find out when and where we meet

We started The 500 Group in 1988, for people interested in the history, operations and buses of Cleveland Transit and the municipally owned undertakings that preceded it.

We have almost a hundred members, from all walks of life. Some are serving, or ex bus people; all share a common interest in buses.

We cater for all aspects of the hobby, from historical research, to study of the current system.

Membership brings the benefits of a large range of activities, whether your interest is in times past, vehicle restoration, or the exciting new vehicles that are coming into service with the local fleets.
