Hunt around our collection of vintage vehicles for special winter roundels with a mix of transport trivia - find them all and you could win a mini Underground lightbox! Once you've found them, enjoy a cosy stop in our winter forest where you can enjoy a video story of the Utterly Awesome Underground journey Santa and his Tf-Elves make. You also might be lucky enough to spot the man in red himself at weekends and the week before Christmas.
For families with special educational needs, book a place at our Early Explorer morning on 12 December to enjoy the Museum at a quieter time, before we open to the general public and with many sounds turned off.

Can you support us this Giving Tuesday?
| Today is Giving Tuesday, a global day to give back. The Museum is a charity and we rely on your support to continue our work, now more than ever.
We’ve had to close our doors for 200 days this year and lost over £3 million in income. Your donations – big or small – have been a lifeline for the Museum and your ongoing support will help us restart our education programmes to ignite children’s curiosity in transport, support young people into transport industry careers and care for our world-leading collection.
