Transport

Transport can be seen in the collections through a great variety of material such as film on the growth and decline of the nation's ship building industry, scenes of ferries and ocean liners, war-time shipping and transport, the hay day of Britain's rural railway network and steam trains, city streets filled with horse drawn carts, buses and trams, cyclists and pedestrians, the early days of aviation, and the expansion of the motor vehicle industry and road networks.
