BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:2.0 PRODID:-/-/EN BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Behind the Scenes: Transport Treasures Straight from the Stores UID:1323 DESCRIPTION:The Coventry Transport Museum holds the world’s largest public collection of British vehicles, so big that not all of it can be on display at one time. Behind The Scenes enables visitors to see key objects from our stores and reserve collections, rarely seen in the public domain.\n\nThe museum can trace its origin to the 1930s with the donation to the city of the Bartleet cycle collection. In 1980, the collection grew so large that a new museum was created. In 2001, the Museum of British Road Transport became Coventry Transport Museum which now proudly showcases the city’s transport legacy through its vehicle manufacture, design and innovation.\n\nCome along and see the technicolour rickshaw cycle, the turbo Talbot, and the extremely popular Barbie Jaguar, amongst many other treasures not usually on display.\n\nPut on your imaginary dust suit and step behind the scenes to reveal what happens out of sight. Learn the history of objects, discover their journey into the collection and learn more about their current condition.\n\nIf you’re really lucky you may even witness our team at work, conserving our objects right in front of you.\n\nWe bring you Behind the Scenes and invite you to discover these hidden treasures.\n\n \n\nFREE ADMISSION DTSTART:20180127T100000Z DTEND:20180507T160000Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
