I Visit London Transport Museum
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- London Transport Museum in Covent Garden is a must see if you are visiting the capital. The majority of the museum's exhibits originated in the collection of London Transport, but since the creation of Transport for London in 2000, the remit of the museum has expanded to cover all aspects of transportation in the city. I take a detailed look at the various different vehicles and trains on display along with sharing different facts about the items. I also take a look inside the gift shop at the museum, Drive a bus!, and see what its like to be a drive on the underground!

Tim, the London Transport museum building was once a flower market in 1871 as part of the covent garden market back in the day, it ceased being used in 1971, and eventually became the museum in 1980.
Nice .. did u just Google that lol
@@WalkWithMeTim Hi tim i have been to the london transport many times the last time i was there was when the new Elizabeth line Exhibition arrived.
i've not been to the new version of this, but i loved the old version, this one sounds even better. the interactive sections were brilliant. as a blind person, getting hands on with the transport was wonderful.
Beautiful old trains fascinating great vid ✨great day out especially with kids
Watched the documetry of old paintings and old pictures of train systems watched on telly always used to visit when i was small as a family with dad and mum
Everytime I go down to London from Edinburgh I pop into the transport museum for the upstairs part of the gift shop for the model buses. I love buses and could spend a whole day in there
Wonderful video walk with me
Keep making wonderful videos
That's it Tim, make me feel old, I used to travel in that tube in London in the 60s!!!🙄😆
Lol
I visited this museum about 20 years ago. I love it, it's one of my favourites and I would like to go back again someday. The early tube train without windows looked very claustrophobic! My other favourite museum in London is the Science Museum, partly because they have the original Apollo 10 capsule which orbited the moon in March 1969. Getting close to real historical objects somehow brings the past to life. Thank you for another interesting and informative video.
Before Covid, you could go and sit in some of the old trains and buses
I still love red buses
Great video. Must get to the museum myself one day. The "60s" tube train you went in was 1938 tube stock. The were used up until the mid 80s and I remember travelling on them on the Northern Line as a teenager. I loved the 38 stock as it was like travelling back in time with all the art deco design touches and that great interior. Incidentally, they just retired some 38 tube stock on the Isle of Wight's "Island Line" which ran services from Ryde pier head to Shanklin. Not bad for an 80 year old train
Wow
We have been there only in the shop,bought our granddaughter a red bus like you had, she’s only 2 and is obsessed with buses well anything with wheels now I’ve seen the museum must take her
You should it's a great afternoon out
My favourite there is the old tube train, so evocative and so much nicer than the modern stock. I loved the handles that hung down from the ceiling!
And loved that old smell too
Fantastic!! And how great for kids! I learned so much from this...
to see the old trains, buses etc...
Another great & fantastic video of London Transport Museum Full Tour!.💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
😉
You should one day team up with Geoff Marshall. I’ve been to the London Transport Museum many times including when I was young. Lovely museum.
Maybe one day!
Yah! :D
Brilliant video really enjoyed watching it my son is a bus driver based in Diss incidently he was the guy honking at you from his bus in Great Yarmouth on your live the other nite!
Lol no way
i went here many years ago great museum
been there a fair few times with the hubby-pretty decent-and costs a fair bit
What a brilliant museum! I never knew this place existed & it looks fascinating. Makes you wonder how different our transport might be in the future. I love the simulator that let's you drive the underground! Fantastic video!
I've always wanted to go .. its pretty good
Hi Tim really enjoyed this used to love getting on the red double decker bus 207 to Ealing from Uxbridge. To visit my aunt and uncles when I was younger. Always sat at the top . I can remember as well when my Nan lived in Norwich we used to get the double decker all the way to Great Yarmouth. Used to be great fun riding through the little villages and going through the trees . Great memories you took me right back . Thankyou for sharing with us love to you as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
I bet you used to sit at the top . . ? Glad you enjoyed it Tracy!
@@WalkWithMeTim Oh yes always at the front as well xxx
Your London Transport Museum video was so interesting Tim
I had to smile when you got behind the wheel of the bus.Thanlyou for another fab video
I’ve been there and it’s amazing

Thanks so much
That was really cool Tim. I must go see that soon, so much interactive stuff to do. A big kids dream, Great video.
The Red train you was on is a 1938 tube stock .. I drove those on the Northern line in 1975 at the tender age of 20 years old lol
wow!
'Hidden London' part is exhibiting the fact that tours are available to go into areas of the Underground normally prohibited to the public. You can arrange to join a tour through London Transport Museum and they will take you into tunnels abandoned decades ago, etc.
Great Vid Tim really enjoyed it
You are welcome ross

Hi Tim not if it's been mentioned but I went earlier in the year and the guys in the blue t-shirt told me to go to acton depot they do theses special events about 3 times a year it would be worthwhile its alot bigger then the that one but u can buy old tube maps and posters etc there alot more buses in there and trains
thanks Jon
Love the video Love old buses and trains
Thanks Andrew
Hi Tim thanks for that video amazing are you going to do the open top bus Christmas lights tour in London
That would be amazing
I need to go next year! I went to the shop last time I was in Covent Garden but haven’t got a chance to check out the museum yet. Funny how much I hate using public transport on a daily basis but love seeing the history of it lol.
Its great fun Kally
Love this museum, even better as i get in free. They have an depot as well in west London but only open a certain times of the year.
Lucky u mark
Should have gone up the stairs in the shop you have model buses up there of different sizes as well.
noooo
Well you can go there next time you visit and check out the upstairs.
I loved your commentary. If you're ever in NYC, I'd love to see you do a tour of the New York Transit Museum. The entrance is setup as if you're entering a subway station.
ill let you know :-)
Brilliant tour Tim of the London Transport Museum I really enjoyed watching the Vlog as I’m in to my transport as my RUclips channel is transport related it looks like the London Transport Museum is definitely on my visit list keep up the good work your doing Tim take care and stay safe

Thanks jason
Great video
Sir .. thanks
I am from norwich tim
Oh I thought gt Yarmouth
Going to watch this tomorrow as feeling really tied as had my covid booster and flu jabs today but I had to go to Huntingdon boots as there was no covid booster in st Neots from Monday just gone and work was asking me when am I going to have my booster and lucky someone I know that lives in st Neots was working in boots in Huntingdon
You had a Bootser then Katie😆 well done!
Ummm thanks katie lol
😉
@@johntyjp yes I did but had to go to boots pharmacy in Huntingdon as st Neots did not have any and work was asking if I had my booster and had flu jab done at the same time
@@WalkWithMeTim watching all your videos from London tonight and they are amazing
Very enjoyable but, as you admitted, you were in a bit of a hurry to get round before closing time so a bit rushed. Thirty minutes would not have been too long a tour. My recollection of the gift shop was of high prices - not as expensive as Harrods :) , but...
Lol
Fascinating tour, Tim! Underground steam carriages, eh... How did they see to board them? 😅😅
Lol
What a great museum, well presented and love the interactive displays too. Did you get a red bus for bump?
Lol not yet
Great video! Dont know if you were aware or not, i know you can visit some of the old disused underground stations which are really interesting (be a great video to do!)
Yes I have been trying but it's tough at the min
been there tim.
Same lol
Great video Tim, that place is worth visiting. Now mind the gap!!😉

It not very interactive is it. Like sitting down on them.. I doubt they are actually the real vintage train so they should let you sit down and experience it than having dull signs
it's an old shop covent Garden
Can you go to tottenham stadium
Lol

No one off tickets just annual 😡
