Watch — and hear — history come to life as powerful military vehicles from the Second World War rumble into action on our demo track behind the Museum. These incredible machines, restored with care by our expert team, once rolled across battlefields and through tough terrain, helping shape today’s world.

Kids and adults alike can get up close to the vehicles, chat with our friendly staff and volunteers, and learn how these machines worked — and why they mattered. There’s plenty to explore for curious minds of all ages.
