behind the scenes: transport store tour

Want to get behind the scenes of NI's Transport and Industry Store? See inside this treasure trove of thousands of automotive, aeronautic and industrial collections that highlight our history of invention in this part of the world.

Take a self-guided wander around these special collections, including Rex McCandless' innovations, historic bicycles, motorbikes, boats and planes like the rare Shorts Sealand. This is a unique opportunity to see a working space - unlike our museum!
