London Transport Museum depot open days

 £15

The occasional open days for the London Transport Museum's overflow depot in Acton where all their trains and trams are stored.

As families visiting the Museum Depot marvel at historic buses and Tube trains from the Capital’s past, they will follow a trail and see how the city’s transport network has evolved over time and imagine what a greener London could look like in the future. They will discover ‘green’ objects in the collection, get creative with a hands-on activity inspired by surprising green spaces in the city and enjoy storytelling about the wildlife we share the Capital with. Families can also enjoy an outdoor display of London taxis through time featuring models from the 1930s onwards and learn about green travel choices, from cycling to scooting.

Families can end their visit by hopping aboard the London Transport Miniature railway for a ride on replica models of vintage Underground trains used on the Metropolitan line between the 1920s and 1960s.
