Fastrack Vintage Bus Running Day - 16th May

1 month ago Fri 1st May 2026

To mark an incredible 20 years of Fastrack, we’re thrilled to announce a special Vintage Bus Running Day taking place on 16th May. This is your chance to step back in time and enjoy a unique travel experience as a variety of classic and more modern vehicles return to the road for one day only. Even better, all rides will be completely free.


Throughout the day, buses will operate on both the A Route and B Route, with additional short shuttle journeys running between Dartford and Bluewater on the B route. Whether you’re a local history fan, or simply looking for something different to do, it’s a brilliant opportunity to see how buses have evolved over the last two decades.


While travel is free, we will be collecting voluntary donations for ellenor hospice, a charity that holds a special place in the hearts of many across the Thameside community. Any contribution, big or small, will help support the vital work they do for local families.


Bring the whole family, explore the routes, enjoy the nostalgia, and celebrate this milestone with us. Come along and join us for a fun, free day out , we can’t wait to see you there.

 

Fastrack services will be running as normal
