It’s all change at MoSR as we prepare something brand new for the 2026 season

The museum has now closed for the 2025 season, but for some the work is only just getting started. In early November, our operations, steam, and carriage and wagon teams were out in force to help transform exhibition hall 2 in preparation for our 2026 exhibition on overnight travel. Visitors are in for a treat and a surprise when our doors open again over the festive period. Do pay us a visit and let us know what you think.

Huge thanks from the whole museum team to everyone who worked so hard to make the move happen. We couldn’t have done it without you and we are grateful for all the support.
