点评:Stumbled upon a leaflet for the museum almost by accident so being a bit of a nerd this was an almost essential visit! Really easy to get to being 2-3 minutes walk from Malahide's station (served by DART & commuter services from Connolly), & reasonable value too, 7.50 € for adults with discounts for seniors, students, & children.
The two ladies on the desk (sorry, can't remember your names) were so helpful & started the visit off with a bit of the history of the building & collection. Exhibits were well laid out with information panels giving some information about the model. Panels on the walls gave a brief history of rail in Ireland & were easy to understand: I would have preferred a bit more detail but then I'm like that & fully understand that this was a museum about the models not the railways!
The model railway in the penultimate room was certainly no Miniatur Wunderland but it was an excellent model all the same. I'm pretty sure kids would love the simulator in the last room.
I have to say though, it wasn't what I expected, but well worth the trek, & spent some time walking round Malahide, which is a lovely place that I'd not visited thus far on my many trips over to Dublin. Staff were lovely & we ended up talking for what felt like hours after I'd been round ("T" is Ireland remember lol)
翻译:几乎是偶然偶然发现了博物馆的传单,所以作为一个书呆子,这几乎是一次必不可少的参观!距离 Malahide 车站步行 2-3 分钟(由 DART 和 Connolly 的通勤服务提供)非常方便,而且价格也合理,成人 7.50 欧元,老年人、学生和儿童可享受折扣。
桌子上的两位女士(抱歉,不记得你们的名字了)非常乐于助人,并以一些建筑和收藏的历史开始了这次访问。展品布置得很好,信息面板提供了有关该模型的一些信息。墙上的面板简要介绍了爱尔兰铁路的历史,而且很容易理解:我本来希望有更多细节,但后来我就喜欢这样,完全明白这是一个关于模型而不是铁路的博物馆!
倒数第二个房间里的铁路模型当然不是微缩仙境,但它仍然是一个出色的模型。我很确定孩子们会喜欢最后一个房间里的模拟器。
但我不得不说,这不是我所期望的,但非常值得长途跋涉,并花了一些时间在马拉海德周围散步,这是一个可爱的地方,到目前为止我在都柏林的多次旅行中还没有去过。工作人员很可爱,在我去过之后,我们聊了好几个小时(“T”是爱尔兰,记得哈哈)
