Dundee Museum of Transport Presentation - 27 May 2021  Donation cheque handover - L to R Alexander Goodger, Jim Paterson
Your
club CCHMSC presented a cheque for £1000 to the Dundee Museum of
Transport on Thursday 27 May 2021. This donation will pay for the
provision of brown tourist signs pointing to the museum from
various places around Dundee city.
Organiser Ron Adam and club
chairman Jim Paterson met with the team at the museum in Market Street
for the presentation. A special cheque for the occasion was handed over
to museum manager Alexander Goodger.
It is hoped that with
more signage around the city that the museum will attract more visitors
to visit the wide range of vehicles on display. Private and public
vehicles, many with interesting provenance are available to see and get
close to.

small number of club members came along for the photo shoot, along with
photographer from the Dundee Courier, whose story you can read at
The
club had agreed to help the museum with tourist signage some time ago,
but Covid got in the way. It is an ill wind as they say, but the
original idea to provide one sign increased to five, when the city
council found other venues had closed down in the intervening
time. A call from Derek Simpson at the museum told us that the council
had offered all these sites for the museum signs as well. This was
an offer that just had to be accepted. Derek and Ron have worked
on this project for some time.
We will continue to follow the re-opening of the museum, complete with a new look logo design.
Expansion plans are afoot to provide more facilities and events to
entertain visitors of all ages. Worth a visit to Market Street next
time you are in the area.
