Transport Museum

Glasgow's Transport Museum is currently located next door to the Kelvin Hall (now a sports and recreation complex) and opposite the huge Art Gallery and Museum at Kelvingrove. But there are plans to move it to an even larger building on the banks of the river, beside the Clyde Maritime Centre. Like all of Glasgow's museums and galleries, entrance is free.

The main exhibition hall houses some of Glasgow's old transport from horse-drawn coaches to tram cars and buses. Walk-ways allow you to get close to the exhibits and in the case of some of the steam trains, to get right inside the driver's cab.

Detailed models of many of the ships built on the Clyde have been collected by the Transport Museum and so the "Three Queens" (Queen Elizabeth I and II and Queen Mary), warships, sailing ships - and Clyde ferries, are all on display.

See also Places to Visit - Transport Museum for more information and illustrations.
