  • London Transport Museum in Covent Garden is a must see if you are visiting the capital. The majority of the museum's exhibits originated in the collection of London Transport, but since the creation of Transport for London in 2000, the remit of the museum has expanded to cover all aspects of transportation in the city. I take a detailed look at the various different vehicles and trains on display along with sharing different facts about the items. I also take a look inside the gift shop at the museum, Drive a bus!, and see what its like to be a drive on the underground!

    Tim, the London Transport museum building was once a flower market in 1871 as part of the covent garden market back in the day, it ceased being used in 1971, and eventually became the museum in 1980.

    I visited this museum about 20 years ago. I love it, it's one of my favourites and I would like to go back again someday. The early tube train without windows looked very claustrophobic! My other favourite museum in London is the Science Museum, partly because they have the original Apollo 10 capsule which orbited the moon in March 1969. Getting close to real historical objects somehow brings the past to life. Thank you for another interesting and informative video.

    Great video. Must get to the museum myself one day. The "60s" tube train you went in was 1938 tube stock. The were used up until the mid 80s and I remember travelling on them on the Northern Line as a teenager. I loved the 38 stock as it was like travelling back in time with all the art deco design touches and that great interior. Incidentally, they just retired some 38 tube stock on the Isle of Wight's "Island Line" which ran services from Ryde pier head to Shanklin. Not bad for an 80 year old train

    Hi Tim really enjoyed this used to love getting on the red double decker bus 207 to Ealing from Uxbridge. To visit my aunt and uncles when I was younger. Always sat at the top . I can remember as well when my Nan lived in Norwich we used to get the double decker all the way to Great Yarmouth. Used to be great fun riding through the little villages and going through the trees . Great memories you took me right back . Thankyou for sharing with us love to you as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
