## Why go

It is a modern museum with lots of interesting artefacts, shows, events, and activities, primarily popular with school-going children. Its collection of old gramophones, sound recorders, telephones, steam engines, road rollers, and other industrial machinery of the period 1880–1950 is very significant. It also actively organises summer camps, awareness programmes, and astronomy observations for schoolchildren.
