Join us as we forge our future and inspire generations to come.
For half a century, the National Railway Museum has been the heart of the nation's railway story. With iconic locomotives and unparalleled engineering marvels, we celebrate the past, present and future of railway innovation.
Museums have always been good at bringing the past to life, in preserving and conserving what has been. But to remain relevant, we must link that past to what is happening today.
In our 50th year we are honouring our rich history while paving the way for our next journey. The Future Fund is dedicated to supporting what tomorrow could be, keeping the world’s greatest railway collection accessible and relevant to all.
Our Future Fund provides essential funding for us to continue to spark moments of discovery for our visitors - moments which may inspire lifelong passions or careers.
As we take the next step towards our future with the completion of Central Hall, our Future Fund will ensure we continue to be a place of inspiration and learning, a showcase for the infinite possibilities of engineering and how it will inspire our tomorrow.
The Future Fund is supported by our Founding Member, The Friends of the National Railway Museum.
