点评:There is so much packed into this museum, hidden behind its unassuming "underneath the arches" entrance!
As other reviewers have noted, it is heavy on the model trains, but we saw that as a good thing as this was the primary purpose of our visit. There were a nice assortment of other items to see too. The special "Paddington" section was lovely (I'm assuming a temporary special display as he's so popular right now.)
The model puppet theatres were also of interest in their own special area.
We were there on a weekday afternoon so it was quiet but still welcoming. Although the antique trains aren't all regularly operating (they'd wear out if this were the case) it was nice that there was a traditional "push the button to make the train move" setup on one of the tracks to entertain children and adults alike!
Our visit took about half an hour and that allowed enough time to look at everything without having to rush. It felt like good value as this is not an expensive visit.

正如其他评论者所说,这里以火车模型为主,但我们觉得这很好,因为这正是我们此行的主要目的。此外,还有许多其他展品值得一看。“帕丁顿熊”主题区非常可爱(我猜是因为帕丁顿熊现在很受欢迎,所以是个临时展览)。
木偶剧场模型也位于一个独立的区域,同样引人入胜。
我们是在工作日的下午去的,所以人不多,但依然很温馨。虽然古董火车并非全部都在运行(如果一直运行的话,它们很快就会损坏),但其中一条轨道上保留了传统的“按按钮让火车行驶”的装置,让大人小孩都能乐在其中,这一点很棒!
我们参观了大约半个小时,时间很充裕,可以悠闲地欣赏所有展品。考虑到门票价格,感觉非常物超所值。
