Has anyone been to the London Transport Museum since it re-opened?

I'm having an unusually long period of Not Being In London and won't be
able to visit until Wednesday. I wonder if anyone has any positive (or
otherwise!) Things to say about what we have to see for two years of
closure?

I tried to post on the exact same topic this morning, but courtesy of
my own dozy ineptness I managed to consigned the post into the ether,
rather than send it on its way via the ethernet.

I am looking forward to a visit - I hadn't been to the old museum for
a some time but it was always worthwhile - though I was pondering
leaving it for a little while until the initial frenzy died down
somewhat (perhaps some time in the new year).

It's also worth noting the late opening of the museum on fridays until
9pm.

Entry is £8, "Seniors" (presumably 65s and over) are £6.50, students
are £5.00, and following in the recent trend under-16s are free - a
move which I think is great, but will no doubt be met with grumbles by
some (though depending on how things work out it might be sensible for
there to be a much reduced admission charge of say £1 for under 16s).
I'd presume that 16-18 year old sixth form students/pupils fall into
the category of the £5 student admission charge, though this isn't
clear. I presume that possession of a 16+ Oyster photocard (or the
older version, the 16-17 Oyster photocard) would do, as would an NUS
card as issued by some sixth form colleges (though not AFAIAA by
schools with sixth forms).

Some may approvingly note that the somewhat cumbersome "London's
Transport Museum" name designation has been dropped in favour of the
original and "London Transport Museum".
