📣Latest News 📣
The Aermacchi MB-326 turbojet engine is one of the newest additions to the museum collection and is set to become part of an exciting new interactive display!

Powered by the Armstrong Siddeley Viper turbojet engine, the Aermacchi MB-326 was widely used as a military training aircraft. Developed in Britain, the Viper engine first entered service in 1953 and went on to power a range of aircraft, including the Royal Air Force Dominie T1 and the MB-326.

This particular engine has had several covers replaced with Perspex panels, allowing visitors to see inside the workings of the turbojet engine for educational and training purposes. The display will give visitors a rare opportunity to view the internal components and better understand how a jet engine operates.

Come along and bring your little learners and enjoy this special new exhibit!

A big thank you to Railway Adventures for a beautiful visit. It was fantastic to see so many people enjoying a relaxed, catered lunch followed by an afternoon wandering through the museum.
John did a great job with his speech, keeping everyone entertained and engaged throughout the day. We love hosting groups like this and sharing the experience with you all.

What a great visit from a group of nine who made the trip up from Sydney. They certainly arrived in style with six Porsches and a Nissan 350Z turning plenty of heads on the way in.

They spent the morning and afternoon wandering through the museum, taking in the collection and soaking up the history. It’s always a pleasure seeing true car enthusiasts enjoying what we’ve built here.

Did you know we’re the largest motor museum on the East Coast? If you haven’t been through yet, come for a wander and see it for yourself. We would love to see more locals visiting 🚗🚘🚃
