Saturday London Transport Museum Open Day- Acton

The Museum Depot in Acton is a working museum store, and a treasure trove of over 320,000 objects.

Three times a year, they throw open the doors and welcome thousands of visitors to explore. Discover rare road and rail vehicles spanning over 100 years, signs, ceramic tiles, original posters, ephemera, ticket machines, and more.

With talks, activities, tours and fun for all the family, these festival-style events are an exciting opportunity to celebrate, learn, and enjoy one of the most comprehensive collections of urban transport anywhere in the world.

The Depot is also home to the London Transport Miniature Railway, a working miniature railway based on real London Underground locomotives, carriages, signals and signs run by there volunteers.

We’re going green!

Learn how engineering and changing technology has helped evolve London’s transport as we look to shape a more sustainable future. Public transport is constantly evolving, from the first electric underground railways to hydrogen-fuelled buses. Join us for this STEM themed, summer event, and take part in a variety of special displays and demonstrations, expert talks, drop-in activities and more, all whilst exploring our collection of over 320,000 objects. 

With something for everyone, join us at the Museum Depot as we celebrate a green past, present and future. 

Why not join your fellow Spicers for some lunch afterwards at a cafe next to Acton Station
