"thanks to all concerned. Loved tonight. All your staff were spot on and helped make the evening so memorable.
It was a privilege to experience all the cars, but the veteran cars and the 6R4 were definitely something special."

"Many thanks for a truly enjoyable evening last Friday at the museum on the move event. It was a real privilege
to be able to experience the vehicles in such a close up way and actually travel in them...
I was particularly interested in the iconic HUE 166 and am grateful to the museum for making a dream become a reality"
