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?


Most of the people who have seen it have been disappointed.

Have these been people who've been in since it opened, or people who
were working (or similar) in there before an actual opening?

I have to confess it's not what I wanted to hear but the simplification
of Museums is becoming a depressingly regular occurrence these days. I
do hope it's not true at the LT Museum.

You got me. I should have said "All the people I know who have been in it
were disappointed."
