Good curated artifacts from trains routed and manufacturing. Its small and can be viewed 30/45 mins. Cash only entranceVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
The museum was not open. No personel on duty. Today is Tuesday 09h10 and the museum is closed. I phoned the office number of the museum 3 times and nobody answers. This is very poor.......Visited onWeekday
Relatively small museum, but lots to see. Inside and outside areas. Many things to interest kids that love transport, especially the display of the inside of a locomotive cab, where one can interact with the controls. There are also several model trains, replica ticket office and train carriage, and a patrol bicycle. Outside you will find further displays, including firefighting equipment, signals and an old steam train. Only subtracting a star for less than expected cleanliness.
A bit disappointed that it's only a small railway exhibit. The big transport museum is in George.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
