October 2021: London Transport Museum Depot

While many regular visitors to the UK capital are familiar with the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden, far fewer people are aware of its substantial ‘overflow’ site at Acton in West London. The LTM Depot is located close to Acton Town station, which is served by the Piccadilly and District Lines of the London Underground. The Depot, which dates from 1999, holds a substantial collection of road and rail vehicles, as well as other interesting artefacts such as maps, posters and signs.

Aside from three open days each year, access is by booked guided tour only, so be sure to arrange your visit on the Depot website prior to turning up.
