Trains are one reason that York gets a lot of visitors. York has always been a major railway centre, and we now have the National Railway Museum here. There are loads of fantastic exhibits, and although I'm not a particular train fan in the way some people are, I do like looking at the steam engines on display. It's amazing how huge they are when you get up to them.

I love this picture. The angle is perfect and the colors are cheerful. My son would love this museum.
I get 'museumed out' just like everyone. But I spent much longer in the NRM than I would in most museums.
It is a very impressive place and it's not just steam locomotives.
Thanks Ruby, you made my day.

Love your view point and the angle is perfect. Good image Ruby.
My son and my Oh both love it there. They used to go there and I could wander round the shops in peace. Then one day when we were going to move away I decided I really must go, and I loved it! There is so much to see. Great photo too.
I like the NRM too. When my friend told her son that I was getting married in York he said "Cool, we can go to the Railway Museum every day while we're there!" I don't think he was quite so enthusiastic about the thought of sitting through the service!
I'm not a fan of trains either, but this museum sounds like a lot of fun!
Hi Ruby, Nice shot again! I used to take my kids for the special events with Thomas the Tank Engine! My dad wants to go and visit every time he comes here...He's a train enthusiastic. Anyway, it's free and a nice place to be when it's cold and rainy outside...Have a nice weekend. Ciao. Antonella
I love the composition on this one!
