The West Shed Museum - (Home of The Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust)

Great place. Always welcoming volunteers and it's nice to see some tlc be given to 6233 Duchess of Sutherland. Also have a boiler pipe too. Will be coming back.

Great to see the work on these mighty engines being carried out. And a beautiful royal carriage which was used by Winston Churchill too. Great volunteers who love to chat and have a brew with you.

This is a great little place for steam locomotive enthusiasts, I take my train mad child quite often and the people who run the shed are friendly and informative - even taking my boy onto the footplate and teaching him the controls. There is also the provision of a nice little cafe with activities for little ones. We used to visit the West Shed quite often by accessing via a footpath that runs by the Midland Railway line, however unfortunately this is now blocked so access is only via paying to ride the Midland Railway locomotive.

Patron's Day. Pleased to hear the positive plans for the Trust.

Great place to visit.. staff are friendly and knowledgeable.. the tea is very good. Great areas for kids to play and learn. Viewing gallery is a good way to see what is going on in the workshop. Unknown warrior was in bit on our visit.

Fantastic place to visit if you come by to the Midland Railway - Butterley. Friendly and informative staff who can tell you everything about the trust and the locomotives they house and look after.

Lovely place, ideal to get up close to steam engines, see them being worked on in the work shops and learn there history

Just fantastic, place to visit and see

Brilliant place for the whole family with lots of things for kids to do, they'll love the train ride and play area plus lots of colouring to be done in the cafe 😀

Very interesting, fantastic restorations being worked on there

Plenty to see Princess Margaret Rose is kept here when not in steam on main line a model lay out and cafe is there plenty of railway books on sale

A lovely place to take the family or your grandad. I really enjoyed the train ride and seeing the inside of the royal carage

Lovely knowledgeable staff. Loads of information, some interactive bits for children to play on which is always a bonus. Really friendly staff in the library/tea room.

Very interesting museum and can see all work in progress, more than a day visit required to view everything, plenty to see, will certainly return to visit again in the near future

Part of a series 2 landrover club trip had lovely tea and biscuits the children with us played in the craft area and loved the model trains plenty to see and read about for my hubby I had great chat with the volunteers about the trust and the area very welcoming would recommend

Had a great day at midland railway butterly. Great to see princess Royal looking beautiful 😍

Super friendly and knowledgeable volunteers do a great job in a fascinating place. Plenty to see....well worth it visit.

My grandson loves it here. He's mad about trains. Loves sitting in the miniature train and pretending to drive it. Lots to see.

Had a great time looking around the West Shed workshop. Learning about the history of the exhibits and people who were employed by the L M S.
Also had a nice cup of tea and a biscuit. Staff helpful and friendly.

Very well kept. Informative tour guide.
