The Station Hall

The Station Hall is intended to create the feel of a period station, with engines and a wide variety of carriages and wagons at platform level. This gives visitors the chance to explore the footplates and look into carriages - from opulent dining cars of a bygone age to Wagons-Lits sleeping compartments.

The story of passenger travel, freight movement and Women at Work on the Railways are all told here. And a sumptuous red carpet leads to Royal Trains - Palaces on Wheels, our stunning display of Royal carriages.
