THE National Railway Museum in York is planning to use shipping containers to improve its food facilities for visitors. The huge cargo-holders will be stacked in the south-east garden of the museum, if proposals are approved by City of York Council. The museum wants to construct, adapt and refurbish the containers so they can operate as an outdoor pizza service and ice-cream kiosk, complete with sliding doors. Its management also hopes to move its old-style Valiant railway carriage to the garden area so it can become a Victorian tearoom. [From Richard Buckby]
