The museum is divided into themes, examining the development of transport systems across the ages.

Or discover how transport was affected by WWII, even housing thousands during the Blitz.
Design lovers and transport enthusiasts alike can enjoy the Design for Travel gallery which showcases pioneering advertising posters and artworks.
