In September, 2002, we paid a quick visit to the National Railway Museum in York, England, our second over the past 25 years. It was between trains and we didn't have a lot of time, but we were able to see most of the museum (an easy walk from the main station). Here's a set of images which will give our viewers an opportunity to see some of its treasures, almost all of which are in perfect running order and are often rolled out, that trace the history of railroading in the UK. When we were there the museum had special status as an educational institution and in order to attract school children was free of charge. Of course, these photos just skim the surface. For further information please go to the museum website. The British love their railways, and there is no better testiment to that than this fabulous facility. Click on each image to enlarge.
