	Winner of the European Museum of the Year 2001 - and rightly so! This vast museum houses the national collection of steam and other locomotives and associated railway memorabilia. This is a place for children of all ages - and even non railway fanatics cannot fail to enjoy a visit here. True fanatics will find it hard to leave. The interactive learning area is excellent, there is a model railway section, and few will fail to be impressed by the beautifully maintained engines and carriages. Enjoy a drink and snack in the Signal box cafe or a more substantial meal in the licensed Brief Encounter restaurant. Alternatively, make use of the indoor or outdoor picnic areas. Family-friendly facilities have been well thought out and are of a high standard.
