Cultural collections description
From Sunday 4 September 2005, work will start on an exciting project to transform London’s Transport Museum in Covent Garden. From August 2007, visitors to the new Museum will be able to explore the amazing history of London's Underground, bus, tram and taxi systems, its staff and passengers. As part of the change, more material about the history of minority ethnic staff (who make up a huge percentage of London Transport workers) will be integrated into the displays. In the interim, material can be found on the London Transport Museum website about the histories of some of its Caribbean staff.
