The Great Hall
The Great Hall houses our unique display of history-makers and record-breakers including Mallard - the world's fastest steam locomotive, Evening Star - the last steam engine made for BR and a replica of Eurostar's nose-cone set in an actual ring from the Channel Tunnel.
Our permanent exhibition, Moving Things - The Mail, and a regularly-changing programme of temporary exhibitions are also on display here. Pictured is the Locomotive Turntable, used to move exhibits in and out of the Museum and to give demonstrations to visitors.
