About Us

Buses…

Some people ride on them

Some people drive them

Some people maintain them

Some people collect and restore them

Some people model them

Some people use them for recreational vehicles

But whatever category you are in, you will enjoy and appreciate your experiences when your knowledge is enhanced through a membership in the Motor Bus Society.

Originally formed in 1948 as the National Motor Bus Association, today The Motor Bus Society joins and serves the needs of people interested in the bus business. The Society’s primary thrust is to preserve bus history through the housing of historical documents, photos and artifacts, through publication of a quarterly magazine Motor Coach Age and through semi-annual conventions and excursions.

The Society incorporated in New Jersey is a non-profit IRS 501(c)(3) organization. Donations to the Society are welcome and are tax deductible. MBS officers and trustees are unpaid volunteers who donate their time and effort to preserve bus history for future generations. Whatever your personal goals are, if you like buses or wish to know more about them, your best bet is membership in The Motor Bus Society.
