Dundee Museum of Transport

The Dundee Museum of Transport is a small independent museum that tells the story of how people and goods moved around Dundee and across Scotland. Its collection has included vintage cars, commercial vehicles, buses and trams, along with models, signage and transport memorabilia. Visitors can see a running recreation of the car from the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang film and a recreation of the city's first flying machine, and can learn about the local tram network, railway and maritime history. The museum's guides are volunteers who are happy to answer questions, which suits children who like cars, engines or anything with wheels. The displays change over time, so the mix of vehicles on show can vary between visits. The museum has been based in a converted warehouse unit at Market Mews since 2014 and has announced a move to the former Maryfield Tram Depot, so families should check its website for the current position before travelling.
