Visit York National Railway Museum to see the UK’s largest collection of record breaking locomotives and wonderful railway artefacts. Entrance to the museum is FREE and there’s almost always a workshop, tour or exhibition to make your visit to the railway museum a truly exciting day out. 2025 is also the museum’s 50th anniversary which will be marked by the re-opening of its magnificent ‘Station Hall’ exhibit in the Spring.

You don’t have to be a railway ‘anorak’ to enjoy the sounds, smell and railway scenes of yesteryear. For many, the first stop is the ‘Roundhouse’ hall which houses some of the locomotives that became ‘champions of speed’ at the zenith of the railways.

The ‘station’ hall is a fascinating journey back to the time when many of us went on holidays by train. Station hall is also where you can see Queen Victoria’s Royal Train. You can take an ‘audio tour’ of the museum and its exhibits for free on your smart-phone.

Rail enthusiasts will be making tracks to York National Railway Museum so why not make your tracks to York Caravan Park and the frequent bus service which takes you directly to York Railway Station from the park entrance. The Railway Museum is a short walk from the station.
