I just got back to the states, we also went to that museum but didn't get the amount of time I'd have liked for the visit. It was family vacation; I was negotiating with like seven other people for what we saw and for how long. Next year, I'll be back in the UK for about a week (sadly, it'll be mostly just London) and have already carved out plans for a day trip out to York just for the Railway Museum.

If you like that, try to make time for the Railway Museum in York. Worth the two-hours-each-way train ride.

Or just stay up North to save a train ticket.

Agreed, York is really good.
Also, putting in a word for the Riverside Museum in Glasgow, which is focused on transport and technology. Well worth a visit.
