We are keen to welcome everyone to our museum. The following page covers many of our frequently asked questions and accesibility information to help you make the most of your visit.

Please contact us if you have any questions or require further assistance.


Our Facilities & FAQ's

What catering do you offer? - can we bring our own picnics? We regret that the Museum has no catering facility. However, a hot drinks machine, soft drinks, ice cream, and confectionery are available in the Shop. Picnics may be taken outside, where there is limited seating available, or if the weather is inclement in the Museum (very limited seating).

Toilets? Yes. Including accessible.

Shop? Yes. We've already mentioned confectionery, ice cream, tea, coffee and soft drinks. There's also a range of small souvenirs relating to railways in general and to our Museum in particular.

Of interest to the real railway enthusiasts in your Party is our main area of business - a very wide range of back-number railway-interest magazines, pre-owned railway books and videos of every description. For further information here go back to the home page and then look for " Shop Sales".

Wheelchair Access & Special Facilities

Wheelchair users:

  • Parking close by the door

Research Facilities

The Trust is very pleased to open its archives and allow access to the stored collection for research purposes. However, not all of the Collection is on display or on site and a volunteer from VCT would have to be present.

It is therefore essential that any visits are pre booked and must be during the opening hours of 11am to 4pm. Please contact the Hon Curator, via the Trust’s email or postal address to make any arrangements.
