Behind the Scenes: Transport Store Tour

About

Explore these collections through a self-guided tour. Highlights include Rex McCandless' innovations, historic bicycles, motorbikes, boats and planes (notably the rare Shorts Sealand). This is an opportunity to see inside a working museum store, quite unlike our conventional public galleries but equally fascinating! 

Various dates available between April and October 2026. Please note, this tour does not take place at Ulster Transport Museum but at our Stores. We'll send the address after ticket purchase.
