For travel enthusiasts young and old, this atmospheric museum - the largest of its kind in the world - offers vivid insight

a working replica of George Stephenson's famous 1829 Rocket; the wonderful Mallard, still the fastest steam engine in the
world; and the only Shinkansen (Bullet Train) outside Japan.
