‘Cyberbus’ Silent Auction
Chris Hull National Express East Anglia Deputy Station Manager at Stansted Airport has emailed me with details of a silent auction being held to raise funds for the charity project currently being undertaken by the National Express Graduates, he says a search in the dark corners of our office cupboards has unveiled some real treasures which include a number of OOC, CMNL & Britbus models.

These have been put up for sale in a silent auction that ends on Friday 4th December. All proceeds will go to the ‘cyberbus’ charity which converts old buses into rolling youth centres to provide a safe and fun environment for youths in the Midlands.

You can see the silent auction catalogue in full and learn more about the charity by visiting www.marcbichtemann.com.
