We’ve got something very special planned for February Half Term 2020: we are sending you and your family on a mission to explore our galleries and discover the signs and symbols that make London’s transport system the most recognisable in the world. Find out more!

Our Museum Late: Night on the tiles is all about the history of London’s rich nightlife from Victorian music halls and night clubs, to subcultures which have influenced London and the world. The Museum of Youth Culture will also be joining us to talk about their latest collecting project, Grown Up In Britain.

In this blog, our Director talks all things Hidden London, from the new immersive exhibition at the Museum and a brand new illustrated book, to the popular Hidden London tours of disused stations across the transport network.

Whet your appetite with a glimpse at the introduction for the 'Bus Fare - Collected Writings on the London Bus' book. Take a look at how transport has changed over the years, yet there is still a familiarity to the journeys today as there was on a Victorian Omnibus.

Early Explorer mornings at the Museum are a fantastic opportunity for students with a broad range of Special Educational Needs to explore the Museum while it is quieter and less busy.

Our Documentary Curator Susanna Cordner invites to our next Late Debate focusing on the innovative solution to reclaim spaces across the Capital.

In our final Friday Late of the Poster Girls series we're celebrating the essence of the exhibition, with a programme of voices representing a diverse range of talent and female empowerment, through lectures, our makers market, tours and 1980s inspired workshops.

London Transport Museum's volunteer Carrie Long talks to Emma Watkins, site engineer at Skanska, about the past, present and future of engineering in London.
