Museum of Transport

Glasgow's Museum of Transport is located within the Kelvin Hall complex, a building which also houses the Kelvin Hall International Sports Arena. Originally housed in the tramcar depot of Albert Drive (now the Tramway) it was transferred to the larger premises at the Kelvin Hall in 1987. Exhibits include those on Glasgow's shipbuilding, locomotive building and car manufacturing history, as well as collections of cars, bicycles, buses, tramcars, railway engines, carriages and model ships. There is also a reproduction of a 1939 Glasgow street. The museum intends a further move to a purpose-designed building in Glasgow's waterfront redevelopment in 2009.
