“A very well played out museum. Great to look back on the history of travel in London over the years. You learn how the underground started, trams and buses from the past. If you have small children there is a lot of areas of play and interaction with the exhibits. If you don’t have children try to avoid weekends and school holidays 😂 Well worth a visit.”
