Overview

Full of light, colour and movement, the London Transport Museum explores how transport has given the City its unique identity. The collection contains a wealth of heritage vehicles, posters, artworks, photographs, film and video footage, engineering drawings, uniforms, station signs and tickets.

Highlights include the iconic red London Routemaster bus, the world’s first Underground steam train and the ‘padded cell’ - one of the first electric locomotive Underground trains dating back to 1890.

The galleries are full of interactive exhibits for young people and adults alike, including real buses and trains to play on, and drama characters bring stories alive in an entertaining and informative way.

Fun Museum Ruined for Adults by Obnoxious Kids

This is a legitimate museum for all ages that has, unfortunately, been given over to young children. The exhibits are interesting and I would have liked to enjoy it more but parents bring their toddlers and let them lose their minds and scream a lot. The museum is small and crammed full with displays, so the out-of-control younglings are very off-putting.

Very minimal sights on offer

Good for maybe 45 mins. Not much to see here. Hard to understand what you are paying for

Ideal para niños
