In this past year of closures, one thing that we've all been doing more of is walking around our local neighbourhoods. At our Museum After Dark event on 17 June 2021, journalist and writer Erica Buist will be collecting your thoughts and experiences to create a collective piece of writing. Find out more in this blog.

Rudi Newman, a Doctor of transport history and London Transport Museum volunteer, talks about one of the highlights in our collection, the Metropolitan Railway steam locomotive No. 23.

Depot volunteer guide Nick Gill explores the 1964 poster 'Music in London' by Hans Unger and Eberhard Schulze, one of the thousands of iconic posters in our world-renowned collection of transport posters and artworks.

Thomas, one of our Volunteer Welcome Hosts, talks about one of his favourite Underground maps in our collection and shares his experience as a wheelchair user travelling on the Underground.

Now that we've reopened our doors, we're back on track to deliver our fantastic programmes for families and schools, starting with fun activities at the Museum in Covent Garden and at the Museum Depot in Acton during May half term.

The Museum might be closed for now, but there's still plenty of ways for you to enjoy our collection, programmes and activities from the comfort of your home. Take a look!
