Well worth a visit
Abbey Pumping Station的点评
点评：We decided to go to APS today on a whim as I’d seen that they were running the train as part of activities for school half term. Hubby is a sucker for a train albeit a small one
When we arrive we of course realised half term means load … and I mean loads, of children
But still we pressed ahead
The museum isn’t that well signposted which is a nuisance and you have to park in the space centre next door - pay and display with one rate of £4 a day
We were approached by a volunteer called Mike who asked if we wanted to see some old vehicles and we happily followed him to the working workshop
He showed us the old Kirby and West Milk floats, old Leicester buses trams and horse drawn carriages as well as the fire engines etc. He obviously takes great pride in the workshop and was very knowledgeable. Very enjoyable.
The main museum itself was very busy… parents if you take your kids out for heavens sake supervise them! The poor museum staff were having to ask the kids not to climb on displays when parents had wandered off.
Sadly the train had de railed which of course happens so we didn’t hang around to ride on it.
Abbey pumping station is a lovely place to go to. The exhibits are well signed (although some are several years out of date)
Remember it’s free to visit and a lot of the staff are volunteers and not paid to child mind

翻译：今天我们一时兴起，决定去APS，因为我看到学校假期里有火车活动。老公特别喜欢火车，虽然只是一辆小火车。
到达后，我们当然意识到假期意味着要“满满当当”……我是说，要“满满当当”，孩子太多了。
但我们还是继续往前走。
博物馆的路标不太清晰，很麻烦，而且你得把车停在隔壁的太空中心——停车费是4英镑一天。
一位名叫迈克的志愿者走上前来，问我们想不想看看一些老爷车，我们兴高采烈地跟着他去了工作间。
他带我们参观了老式柯比和西米尔克花车、老式莱斯特巴士、有轨电车、马车以及消防车等等。他显然对工作间非常自豪，而且知识渊博。非常愉快。
主博物馆本身人很多……如果带孩子去的话，家长一定要好好监督他们！可怜的博物馆工作人员不得不提醒孩子们，家长们走失后，不要爬上展品。
可惜的是，火车脱轨了，这当然是常有的事，所以我们没能留下来坐一坐。
修道院泵站是个很不错的地方。展品标识清晰（虽然有些已经过时好几年了）。
记住，参观是免费的，很多工作人员都是志愿者，不收孩子的保姆费。
