Review:
National Railway Museum's aim is to showcase the past, present and future innovations associated with the railway and the social and economic impact it has had on society. The 'Brass, Steel and Fire' exhibition focuses on the 1829 Stephenson's Rocket and how it influenced the course of the Industrial Revolution. A plethora of small-scale experiments and homegrown creations that resulted from its invention are on display. The Great Hall houses examples of engines through the ages and a multi-faceted, model railway system can be viewed from several angles. Visitors can enjoy train rides and use simulators to drive engines.
