- The National Railway Museum is a museum in York forming part of the British Science Museum Group of National Museums and telling the story of rail transport in Britain and its impact on society. It has won many awards, including the European Museum of the Year Award in 2001. It is the home of the national collection of historically significant railway vehicles, as well as a collection of other artefacts and both written and pictorial records.
The National Railway Museum in York displays a collection of over 100 locomotives and nearly 300 other items of rolling stock, virtually all of which either ran on the railways of Great Britain or were built there. Also on the 20 acres site are many hundreds of thousands of other items and records of social, technical, artistic and historical interest, exhibited mostly in three large halls of a former motive power depot next to the East Coast Main Line, near York railway station. It is the largest museum of its type in Britain, attracting 727,000 visitors during the 2014/15 financial year (the largest in the world in terms of floor area of exhibition buildings is La Cité du Train in the French town of Mulhouse, although this attracts far fewer visitors than the National Railway Museum).
The National Railway Museum was established on its present site, the former York North locomotive depot, in 1975, when it took over the former British Railways collection located in Clapham and the York Railway Museum located off Queen Street, immediately to the south east of the railway station; since then, the collection has continued to grow.
There are approximately 280 rail vehicles in the National Collection, with around 100 being at York at any one time and the remainder divided between Locomotion at Shildon and other museums and heritage railways. The earliest are wagonway vehicles of about 1815. The permanent display includes "Palaces on Wheels", a collection of Royal Train saloons from Queen Victoria's early trains through to those used by Queen Elizabeth II up to the 1970s, among them some of the first rail vehicles to be set aside for preservation. Other key exhibits normally to be seen at York include the 1846 Furness Railway No. 3 "Coppernob" locomotive, and the more modern express passenger steam locomotives London and North Eastern Railway Class A3 No. 4472 Flying Scotsman (added to the collection in 2004), its streamlined sister Class A4 No. 4468 Mallard and London, Midland and Scottish Railway Princess Coronation Class No. 6229 Duchess of Hamilton. Flying Scotsman is among the exhibits intended for operation on the National Rail network from time to time.
This was my heaven as a kid, anyone thinking of going highly recommended AND ITS FREE
I went in 1992 in a school trip to York from Scotland. Brilliant memories.
It’s free?
But
If you live far away and it takes four hours to get there like me then it'll be most of the day gone in the car then you have to get a hotel and I have not been able to go yet because of that reason (not saying it's a bad place just saying that I'm excited for when I get to go)
@@Porsche_Addict05 yes, well atleast used to be
My great grandad worked on the mallard. He was shovelling coal or something on it. He's turning 100 this year :) When he was working on it he was annoyed because he wanted to be a soldier and go to war with the other guys😂 let's just say I'm glad they made him stay on the trains.
edit: he passed away about 2 months ago, he SURVIVED the corona virus but passed away because he got sepsis. rest in peace wally
A blessed age
Oh I’m so sorry for ur loss bro 😢 but that’s sick he worked on the mallard, he must of been a awesome guy.
Condolence
R.I.P to the coolest person I've ever heard of
@@maxbarber4675 he was very cool :) was still getting all the ladies at 99
My grandad used to take me here when i was very young all the time and i haven’t been in probably 11 years this is a trip down memory lane. I have very vague memories of the place but every little thing i remember that is on this video takes me back to those memories.thanks for uploading this
my grandad was the keeper of it so we always went all the time, he died in 1998 but we still have lots of photos of him with prince Philip and in the trains and stuff
I love the York train museum, haven't been in years despite it only being an hour train ride away. Might go after lockdown
Lockdown gone now hop on that train NOW
I was there June 6 2016!!! I was so happy. I stayed there 6 hours!! I love trains so this was fun fun!!
Tim Daugherty , I loved everything there, but really loved the side room with all the small stuff related to trains.
Tim Daugherty that’s cool I love trains to but I stopped collecting Thomas when I was 8 2014/2015 because I felt like I was getting to old to get them
Tim Daugherty I love trains to but my favorite steam locomotive is A4s to me they are the best steam locomotive
I saw those cabinets full of models and thought "I'll just take the lot!" and where the lady calls out "Taxi!" at the end, in my case it would be "Cargo 747!" I WANT EVERYTHING!!!! LOL!!
@@tobys_transport_videos Haha, just like the British in India. They wanted everything but ended up with nothing.
art deco, greatest design ever.
i spent a week in York some years ago, and my last day in this great museum. York is great, far too much to see in a week, I should have started at the Rail Museum. Reccomended !
Wish I could go the engines look so beautiful and shiny!
Mallard is such an amazing and charming old speedy and shiny A4 class steam locomotive!👍🏼😃🚂 She is a girl who can hit 126 mph, she's the fastest steam locomotive even!🚂 That's a powerful girl!💪🏽👧🏼👩🏼
Until I can visit England again, the next best thing I can do is drop by Montreal and see her sister, Dominion of Canada (one of the hopes driving me through this blasted pandemic)
Thank you for the walk into a beautiful railroad museum, Enjoyed every minute.
You’re oh-so welcomed.
Looks like a bitter sweet place to be. You love that the engines are there and not in danger at all, but at the same time, they may never be run again, and that's saddening
Love the Art Deco designs, thank you America!
Great video showing off some of the amazing displays at the NRM. There have been lots of new additions since this video. Has anyone been recently?
Beautiful trains!
I'm going on holiday to York soon, and you bet your ass that this will be the highlight of my stay
Nice and thanks for quality video 📹.
Thank you. This video was simply magnificent.
Those old coaches magnificent.
On my bucket list of places to visit if I ever go to England.
Nice overview of the place you did a really good job :)
Muneem's favourites ...thank you!
This is on my "bucket list" of places to visit. Just have to convince the wife to go "over the pond".
You go to the museum, and send her to the York Downtown shopping/restaurants tea rooms area.
I went to the museum and was glad to see the Deltic train engine I remembered as a child. I believe that there is one at the seven Valley railway Shropshire still in use. I remember the distinct sound the engine made.
Static exhibits are one thing, but for me a steam locomotive in operation is a creation of splendour and beauty unmatched. A static exhibit can never re-create the sound, feel, and even the smell of a live steam locomotive. You have to see them, hear them, smell them.......they excited me as a boy coming from railway locomotive driver families of both my father and mother, and they still excite me to this very day.
You know, it never leaves you. I have never stood on the footplate of a UK steam locomotive, but it is still in me. It never left me. If steam had continued, it would be where I would be right now, and rightly so. If I am granted another life, it is where I will be, in another time. But for a handful of decades, I would have been there. Both grandfathers were 45 year veterans of the GCR, LNER, and later BR. I have one grandfathers 45 year BR service award, a gold Smiths wrist watch, plus the box and presentation literature from BR. You either got that or a Westminster Chime clock. My grandfather Spencer had that. I also have my grandads footplate watch and silver chain too. My uncle Ted came from cleaner all the way through to senior locomotive instructor at BR, having done steam, diesel, and electrics. He took out 4000 Kestrel, the most powerful diesel on BR at that time, on her trials hauling 2000 ton coal loads from Shirebrook Colliery to High Marnham Power Station. I saw her as a lad outside the engine shed at Shirebrook. Light grey roof, canary yellow livery, and 4000 in black numerals on the cab door. Ted left her outside on the siding line so everyone could see her. He was proud as punch to drive her, and so sad when she was sold off to Russia. I even walked under her with my uncle Mike in the pit in the engine shed aged 7. Ted had to go to York to show crews on the North Yorkshire Railway how to stop making smoke in the station. It appears the station master was furious about this. I asked why him? 'Because there's no one else who knows how now!' was his answer. Three other uncles were firemen on LNER & BR, whilst a further uncle, Percy, was a top link driver on expresses out of Euston with the LMS. He was a Wessy (formerly of the LNWR), and could remember back to the days in the 1930's when he had been on the footplate of the streamlined Princes Coronation Class Locos, some of which are on display at York Museum. He had covered in his career just about all of the Princess Coronation Class locos, most of the Royal Scot and Patriot Class locos, and a good smattering of the Jubilee and other classes of locos too. I met him as a small boy in 1964 when he was in the twilight of his railway career, not far from retirement. When I met him he was three weeks away from taking out Sir Willian A Stanier FRS. She was my favourite of the Princes Coronation Class. 'Ah lad, last of the Duchesses', said Percy. He had an encyclopedic mind. Not only did he know the little pecadillos of driving and firing each engine, but their whole maintenance history too! Such was the job then. It was not a job, it was a way of life. Saturday afternoon at grandmas was tea and sandwiches, but this was a smoke screen. Actually it was railwaymen discussing the ins and outs of the railway rules, and what applied to what. These discussions could sometimes be heated, and almost like a Monty Python sketch. This almost sent my grandma beserk, and she would retire away to the bedroom when these discussions were ongoing. When Percy visited there was always a lot of needling. Rivalry between old LNER and LMS men about locomotives and practices was still present despite it all now being BR for a considerable period, and the fact that Percy was a top link driver too added fuel to the fire. As a small boy I stood on Shirebrook Station watching the coal trains come through. Grey 16 ton wagons with the customary white diagonal line on one panel, the average train being about 38 trucks. These later changed to grey hopper style wagons which carried I think 20 tons. Spaceships (9F's), Wobblers (WD Austerity Class), O1's, O4's.......wow, the smell of them, the sound of them. Waving to the drivers and firemen. Sometimes jumping up and looking over the road bridge wall, to see the fiebox flashing as she sped off into the distance, the fireman slogging away. Wonderful!
It was a normal day. Nobody had told me that anything special was on. So I set off from home down the woods. Walking over the road bridge it was clear that something was going on on Shirebrook station. Lo an behold....a whole entourage was there....the lord mayor, a big crowd, a small stage set up......and on the platform was Flying Scotsman! WOW!! Well, it appeared the formalities were almost over. No chance to get close to the engine, the crowds were too big. So I watched as she left the station and set off around the loop to join the main Lincoln line. I waved. Goodbye Flying Scotsman, would have liked to have looked you over, but too late off the mark. Ho hum. I therefore set off down the woods. After messing around in the woods for about two hours, I returned home. WHAT?! I rubbed both eyes. Then I rubbed them again. Was I dreaming or something? There was Flying Scotsman, back on the station. All the stage, chairs, dignataries, and crowds had gone. Down I rushed onto the station. Taking a look on the footplate, there was no crew. So there I was with Flying Scotsman, all alone on the station. One of the special times in my life this was. I reached up and touched her name plate, and then one of her big connecting rods. The name plate was the red one she had before going to the USA. She was resplendent in LNER apple green livery, and black painted smoke box. I later learned from uncle Ted at my brothers wedding that the point onto the main line had failed, and she had had to reverse all the way back into Shirebrook station. Said Ted, 'So you got to look around Flying Scotsman. You lucky bugger!' I said 'Why lucky Ted?', and he said 'I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE LOOKED AROUND FLYING SCOTSMAN!!' Ha, ha! Halcien days.
Another reminiscence......I was playing on Shirebrook station. The station had been disused for years, but was still in very good condition. The platforms were in a remarkably good state at that time. On comes a 9F with a fully laden coal train from Shirebrook Colliery. The semaphore signals on the road bridge were set to danger, so the engine pulled up on the end of the station platform. I looked up, a small lad of about 5 or 6, onto the footplate. It was my grandad! My grandad was driving her. 'Hello grandad' A head looked out of the cab window, 'Aye up lad, what yer doin' ere?' 'Oh, just playing grandad. Hey grandad, what's that lever for, what is that funny guage for, whats that......' My grandad explained as I looked up onto the footplate. The fireman meanwhile was leaning on his shovel. I said, 'You know what grandad?', 'What lad', 'It must be great to be a steam engine driver.' At this the fireman moved off his shovel and said, ' Yes sonny, but first you have to learn how to shovel three tons of this' pointing with the shovel to the coal in the tender, 'into this' opening the firebox doors with a mighty roar, 'while its movin' ' I said, 'I still reckon that it must be great to be a steam engine driver.' The fireman said to my grandad, 'What yer reckon Bill?' My grandad replied, 'I reckon a chip off the old block!' They both chuckled. Then the semaphore signal changed. Both home and distant were now showing good. The fireman, holding both the side cab rails hung out and looking me straight in the eyes said, 'It won't be long before YOU'RE on the footplate sonny!' Then they set off. 'See yer later gandad' 'See yer later lad', 'Goodbye sonny', 'Goodbye mister'. I can still remember this as though it happened just yesterday. I am so glad I saw, heard, and smelled those steam locomotives. Ah, the smoke.....what a wonderful smell it was. I can remember it. In Heanor once I smelled it whilst driving through. I knew straight away....where is that steam engine I thought....and there she was.....an A4 up on the main line....the fire brigade filling her tender with water. A big long red nameplate......possibly Union of South Africa. Do I miss them? Yes.....every engineman did....even those that converted to diesel. These men were a special breed. The job was their lives. They lived for it. Steam required true skill. No pressing buttons and just moving a lever.....you had to know how to drive and fire them....and all steam engine classes, and even engines within the same class, had characteristics of their own. You had to learn how to fire and drive them. That took time and skill. Diesels basically de-skilled the railways. Yes, more comfortable, and perhaps somewhat safer, but none-the-less, less demanding than steam, plus the crew relationship was broken. No more firemen required. My uncle Ted always stated that it was nice to brew up in a nice warm cab in the middle of Winter, but when questioned on the demands of railway driving, always he stated that steam took first place. You had to know what you were doing with diesel, but with steam if you got it wrong you were in a whole world of trouble.
@@MrMoggyman thanks for sharing. Railways of yesterday were a great, living artform. possibly the most underated of all time.
Been to York Railway Museum many of times it's a great day out for everyone old & young
Fantastic place was there last friday!!°°
thanks for sharing :-)
SLOWPAW STEVE T you’re welcome.
I remember going on a school visit to the York Railway Museum in 1961 or 1962 with Parkside Secondary Modern School from Leeds, and it was even impressive back then!
Thank you!
Fortunately I’m going to York on January so I’ll be able to see these beautiful machines
These are great places to visit to learn of the past and to plan for the future. I have been through the train museum in Sacramento California several times with my wife when she was alive and we always enjoyed the visit. Hopefully the oil companies and their cronies do not put an end to the high speed rail project, in California. The train is the best way to go and it sure beats sitting in traffic jams.
You have to let go of the idea of high speed rail in the USA. It only works in places with A population concentrated/small areas like Europe and Japan. Start thinking Hyperloop and mag-lev as our future.
thx upload good video !!
HopStepJunk thank you.
Wow. Superb
So beautiful trains
ive been here so much and i love rip to your grandad dude im sorry that he passed away
Well worth the price of admission
I know I have been there and saw mallard and flying Scotsman
Its Free Entry
bwahaha
I thought Scotsman was still running
Haha the 'flying Scotsman', you know the flying lady on the Rolls Royce? No, never seen her.
4:34 Nice train from Japan.
I'd like to a Coronation class run again before I seen Mallard run again.
Bathtub vs thoroughbred???
Mallard!!!!!! What a stunning locomotive. Many argue, but she holds the official world record as the fastest steam locomotive of all time! 126 mph. It has never been officially beaten.
And it never should be. Mallard represents steam at the peak of innovation.

Beautiful Coronation in the thumbnail
This is only five years ago and already they’ve moved City of Truro, the NSR battery loco, the dandy cart, King George V, the mail van, Winston Churchill and now Aerolite. The museum gets emptier and emptier every year.
I always loved British Steam Engines, it's a shame I will never get to see them in real life.
DuckOliver19 ...save up some quids and go.
American locomotives are better
Tara Dhar I love all the steam no matter if it’s American or England I love them all
Yeah..Whatever !!!!
I go there every year
I really want to go there
It looks awesome
Great Video Michael!...my homeland and trains that i Love so much!...and if anyone wants to see some working Steam engines go down to the seven valley railway near birmingham, where you can have a ride through the country! 😌👏🏻🇬🇧
Martin Kilner ...thank you Martin.
Martin Kilner The Bluebell Railway Has Some Too So Does The Didcot Railway Centre,The Dean Forest Railway,The Kent And East Sussex Railway And More
What an amazingly spectacular display. However, based on the audio accompanying the video - I would only go there on an Adults Only day.
Wow amazing and i love steam trains from the national railway museum man so cool and there's mallard amazing 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Impresionante Museo
I’m going here next week on Saturday for my birthday :D
" I’m going here next week on Saturday for my birthday :D"
I hope you had a wonderful day :o)
Visited the NRM a few years ago, very interesting.
It would be nice to see them in steam every now and again
@Thomas McDonald there's a bus nearby. Did you take it?
Been there to many times as i grew up in west yorkshire i no my way around the museum with my eye closed me and the family got to york from leeds by bus or train
Unfortunately you're no longer allowed to look inside the Mallards cab no more
I wish ellerman lines could be restored it's a crime what's been done to it
Nice
Arrgh, creepy eye you found me.
I been many times before. I was quite surprisingly there today the 7th March 2018.
I have been there it is great
I swear when i go, ill be there for a day!
RailsideStudios ...in the model train room alone.
time to book a flight to York!
There is not an airport at York...Leeds/Bradford is the closest.
Mallard streamline train awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Danielle Cox I love her an the duchess of Hamilton streaming but I love Mallards on better
I can't wait to do a selfie with them both! I've been waiting roughly 40 years to meet Mallard!!!
Mallard might be awesome but daylight 4449 will always be better!
No need to overuse the ! Please edit all but one of them out.
Tara Dhar no, no, no, NO! Daylight is actually garbage, and I would pay good money to kick the ‘daylights’ out of it and have it meet mr. Cutters Torch.
Omg...is wauw, real nice....i like to go there to see it...oh, oh, .very nice...thanks
Henk Zaanstad ...thank you, Henck.
I needed to know why they don’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so that they can extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and that includes the class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign them an overhead line and also make them into Five cars per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 8-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into an 11 car per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Trains and also having 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it more Larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 37 Octagon and Every 17 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 142MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 142MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!!!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 17 Tonnes for all of those 142MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so please make sure that the Builders can do as they are told!!!! And please do something about these very very important Professional ideas Please? Prime Minister of England, Prime Minister of Australia, Prime Minister of Sweden, Prime Minister of Germany, Prime Minister of Italy, Prime Minister of Poland and that Includes the Mayor of London.
A Walk Through The National Railway Museum louis shirley
It looks very cool, but I miss the old classy feel. It should have decoration in the style of the golden age of steam engines. In the Netherlands, we have nice attractions and old cars and a station building to make you feel like you're really there. However, the rolling stock and locomotives is huge and definitely want to see the classic locomotives.
I am not aware or have I seen the Dutch Rail Museum, but I'm sure it's beautiful. But, I think the UK National Railway Museum is one of the best in the world.
+Michael Jiroch oh yes I believe it is! I love the British preserved engines, so many and different types. Just the building could've been better. That says nothing about the information told of course, since I haven't been there yet.
+Jisk van der Veen You'll love it. And do the the old York Train Station while there. It's a grand old station. One of the original stations in Britain.
+Michael Jiroch o yea saw pics of those. Hoping to take some trips at the NYMR too
+Jisk van der Veen help me out here, I live in California, what is NYMR?
Kool
I was touched by the fact that Japan 's Shinkansen is being exhibited in the country of railway origin in the UK.
Mallard is my favroite
Wow man this so cool and incredible and mallard does really look like spencer also stephenson's rocket is just like stephen also that eletric battery powered shuting engine is just like stafford and that japanese bullet train is just like kenji like you know i know the 4 characters from thomas & friends are based on mallard stephenson' rocket eletric battery powered shunting engine and that japanese bullet train and they are spencer stephen stafford and kenji how's that ?
i love trains i go to there great central railway barrow hill peak rail and midland railway butterlery my grandad takes me there im also going to severn valley railway and the the battlefield railway very soon
I hope they can be running again
im going there next week
Enjoy yourself!
How was the experience
My father would have been in train heaven at York Train Museum 😀
4:06 is the only left in the world?
The streamlined duchess,magnificent , would love to see it steam,
This is my version of heaven
I love trians
Thomas and friends references! Any characters you recognized???
Spencer (mallard😂)
Sad that the duchess is stuck in there. Needs to get out on the mainline!
The thumbnail made me think, “if Daft Punk made a guest appearance on Thomas the Tank Engine”
Ich mag züge
Where was Evening Star when this was filmed?
What’s the gift shop like?
man its like i am watching the show "Thomas the tank Engine"...i love Engines nd that cartoon,.😘😘😘
Pramit Nandi
Bernie James 😊
Pramit Nandi Loved that programme, especially with Ringo Starr narrating. Loved the fat controller😂😂😂😂
Hi. I read that the aerodynamics design of A4 Mallard was made by an Italian designer. Correct or fake ? Which is his name?
Fake. The A4 class were designed by Sir Nigel Gresley. Look him up on Wikipedia. He was the Chief designer of locomotives and passenger stock for the LNER for most of its 23 years existence and for the GNER for a while before that.
I see what some of the engines of Thomas and friends are based upon
Fabulous day out & guess what it's free.
I went there 20 years ago and again 10 years ago and it was exactly the same.
Plus it looks really run down.
Someone complained that there's nothing there about what's happening at the moment, like carrying more passengers or Dawlish Sea Wall. Or coping with the Covid thing.
Still I'd go again .
I have to go before I leave earth 🌍
I have to say that it wasn't very diplomatic of the NRM to couple 'Gladstone' onto Victoria's carriage. To say that the two disliked each other would be an understatement!
Can you climb in them?
And those engines are a eletric engine and a yellow stepheson rocket they are really just like stafford and stephen from thomas & Friends and that blue engine with red wheels call mallard is just like spencer you know also from thomas & Friends
3 quid for a sausage roll
Hyia, how much cost the ticket please for museum???
Its Free! Free! Freeeeeeeeeee!
Old trains are better than modern trains
Fatlum Dili ....but I would rather ride in a high speed modern train.
EHRENMEN Albaner agreed
BesFat Royale ganv Yeah
Ironic that the National Railway Museum is in York given the government has completely abandoned any kind of rail investment there.
Are you allowed to blow the whistle from the trains
As the locomotives are not in steam this would be impossible !!!
