The Big Massive Railway 200 Quiz | National Railway Museum Staff Test Their Train Knowledge

Описание: This year it's not just the National Railway Museum's 50th birthday, it's the 200th anniversary of the modern railway after Locomotion No 1 hauled passengers on that fateful day in 1825.

To mark the occasion we're kicking off the year with a quiz! Join lively host Tim Dunn and four contestants from different teams at the museum as they pit their wits against five rounds of intense questions devised by museum quizmaster Chris Valkoinen.

A bit more about the contestants. Kitty Bartlett from Marketing and Communications joins forces with Dr Thomas Spain from Curatorial and Ashlynn Hudson-Welburn from Archives and Libraries has teamed up with Anthony Coulls from Curatorial.

Grab a pen and paper and join in! We'd love to see your scores in the comments, plus any other interesting thoughts you want to share.

This quiz was filmed in Wonderlab, an interactive gallery inside the National Railway Museum's Great Hall. Curious about the orange sculpture? That's called Mass by Steve Messam (more info below).

Thanks to Tim Dunn, our (mostly) willing contestants and a very dedicated video production team for bringing this idea to life.
