A working scale model of a dock with its cranes and trains would be good, too. A Port of London museum could be quite interesting. Do any of the existing museums cover that? There's NMM Greenwich not to away, but that's not London focused. The Museum of London branch in Docklands (near Canary Wharf) has some coverage, but I don't recall any coverage of the dock railways. It's more about the trade through the docks, than the workings of the docks themselves. |
