They should make it free to visit as well. All muesums should be
free. The National Rail Muesum in York is the best muesum in the
country and you don't pay a penny to visit.

It's generally only state-owned museums are free. The National
Railway Museum is Yorkis all part of the National Museum of Science
and Industry, along with London's the Science Museum and the
National Museum of Photography, Film & Television in Bratfud.
OTOH, HMS Belfast is part of the Imperial War Musuem, but that
costs.


Don't we own Transport Muesuem? I thought it was owned by Transport
For London Or London Underground which I do belive you London
Taxpayers (and probably us newly Non-London Tax-payers) pay for?
Therefore we own?
Or is Transport Mueseum owned by someone else?


London's Transport Museum is owned by TfL.


And who owns TfL? Im sure we did? Or do we just pay the bills?
