<p>A visit in Swindon to the <a href="https://www.steam-museum.org.uk/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">STEAM - Museum of the Great Western Railway</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
STEAM – <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_of_the_Great_Western_Railway" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Museum of the Great Western Railway</a>, also known as Swindon Steam Railway Museum, is housed in part of the former railway works in Swindon, England – Wiltshire's 'railway town'. The 6,500-square-metre (70,000 sq ft) museum opened in 2000.<br />
<br />
The museum is housed in a former engineering workshop, built c.1842 using squared rubble from the Box Tunnel, and forming part of the Swindon Works of the Great Western Railway. The works was one of the largest in the world and operated from 1843 to 1986. In its heyday, it covered more than 300 acres (120 ha), and could turn out three locomotives per week.<br />
<br />
Most of the former works buildings are now a McArthurGlen Designer Outlet. Also on the site are the headquarters of the National Trust (in the Heelis building) and offices of English Heritage.<br />
