WHAT OTHER TRANSPORT MUSEUMS ARE THERE?? Ahhh I recommend it it was awesome there was a very interesting and saddening exhibit about how the British invited Barbados people to come and work there kinda like the American dream kinda situation and people who came found racism discrimination and a preference for white Christian Britains and their skills were often not recognized they were forced to take housekeeping and other jobs which they were over qualifiedfor (which excuse me but it's so entirely fucked up. And yeah of course those people are important and should be valued as well! But yeah the fact that they were told that their degrees and such weren't good enough . That they were marginalized and treated so badly It makes my blood boil
sorry but I have strong opinions about Colonization and racism in general ) anyhow in lighter news very interesting to see the evolution of the way we get around! I have photos!
don’t apologise I love learning about stuff like that!!
my fav transport museum I’ve been to is a living one somewhere around the southwold area (tho I don’t know the exact location or name), because it was set up like a little town with garages, and working trams and buses. also the british transport museum which is the biggest in the uk I believe. I went after newsies my second time and it was everything, they had a whole section about austin healey’s including a cross section of the same model I’m building. near me is the ulster transport museum which I haven’t been to in ages, next to the folk park which is a living museum showcasing plantation ireland
