The Science and Industry Museum occupies a remarkable site. History was made here when the world's first inter-city railway opened on 15 September 1830. Our unique buildings were part of a revolutionary railway station, and for over 140 years, they were the scene of non stop activity, as people and goods travelled in and out, around the clock. SIM are now offering you an incredible opportunity to hold your conference, dinner or reception on the top floor of the world's first railways house.
