![The <I>Titfield Thunderbolt</I> herself, but masquerading as <I>Lion</I> of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway in the display hall in the new Museum of Liverpool. It seems incredible to think that this veteran, built in 1838, steamed as recently as 1989. However, the work required now to allow her to steam safely would destroy too much conserved material so she will remain a static exhibit. <br><br>[Mark Bartlett 15/02/2013]](/images/42000/42070.jpg "Museum of Liverpool")
![The Liverpool Overhead Railway's last surviving car is part of an ingenious exhibit at the Museum of Liverpool. It is mounted on a replica section of the <I>Dockers' Umbrella</I> so visitors can see the height at which trains operated. There is also a replica station and visitors can enter the car and sit on the wooden seats. [See image 42111] <br><br>[Mark Bartlett 15/02/2013]](/images/42000/42103.jpg "Museum of Liverpool")
