00:00The best place as a couple to go in Yorkshire with Valentine's Day, February being month of
00:06love and all that, we're here at the National Railway Museum, voted one of the best places
00:12for couples. People all over Yorkshire join hands start a love train, love train, here at the
00:19Railway Museum which is free to enter and it's also celebrating its 50th anniversary and it's
00:27part of Railway 200, celebrating 200 years since the birth of modern railway. We took a look around
00:35the Great Hall where you get underneath the trains, you can get on the Shinkansen or just
00:41worm your way around the exhibition. It were ideal for groups of people as well as families,
00:48although little ones have got to be careful they don't climb on everything. There is also a play
00:54for kids to play. My husband who's a bit older found himself lusting over the locomotives,
01:01I however thought it was incredible but I wasn't sure how it was the ideal place for couples.
01:07Now if we could have jumped on this buffet cart that might have sealed the deal. There's loads of
01:13memorabilia on display and it really is an epic place just to have a quick look around.
01:21A hot date, a pot of tea and a slice of lemon drizzle, this is date Yorkshire style.
01:28You do pay for food and drink and there's a gift shop and don't forget it is a charity so they
01:33really do appreciate donations. We also paid £10 to park his car all day in their car park.
01:40To make a romantic date day of it what I would do is after looking around the museum jump aboard
01:47their land train where you can head into the centre of York and you can experience the York
01:53Minster, the Guy Fawkes Inn, the Shambles and all of York's delights. Now that is romantic.
