About

The collection tells the story of rail travel in Britain across two centuries. Among its engines are Mallard, holder of the world speed record for steam, and a Japanese bullet train, while Station Hall displays the lavish carriages used by Queen Victoria and later monarchs.

Best time to go: Head to the Great Hall first and leave time for the royal carriages in Station Hall.
