Ready to take your imagination full steam ahead? In this paid workshop, design and build your own wagon to run on the 16mm model train track! Precision, power, and play come together in this exciting engineering challenge. Only 12 spaces available — book early!

To take part in the full workshop please plan to spend at least 2.5 hours at the museum as the wagon will need to dry before being run on the 16mm track. During the break visit the museum, have lunch/a snack, play in the splash zone, and then return to run your wagon on the 16mm train track.
