It was a nice quiet non guided tour so we could go at our own pace. Which is great since i was with my parents who have trouble getting around. It was unique and tells alot of the history of the area. Great overall experience.

My husband really enjoyed looking around this museum and especially climbing onto the footplate of the steam engine. There is a fascinating display of artefacts, including some old uniforms. The staff are very knowledgeable and more than willing to answer questions.
