ABOUT US

A visit to site allows pupils to experience a wide range of stimuli through accessible artefacts.

The railways of Britain are now very much a part of our popular culture and the Museum of Scottish Railways reflects this rich heritage in its contents, which includes many exhibits that are of particular significance to Scotland’s past. Additionally, a trip on board a working steam train is an experience which can be a stepping stone to many subsequent learning opportunities.

Being a heritage site naturally means that many of the potential Experiences and Outcomes will be directly related to Social Studies: People, Past Events and Societies, but there are many other links with just about every other part of the Curriculum for Excellence, e.g. Science; Mathematics; Language and Literacy; Expressive Arts – Art & design activities, Drama, music and dance and Health and Wellbeing.
