Halloween Train – October Half Term

Ride a decorated steam train and explore family Halloween crafts and a museum scavenger hunt during October half term.

The museum opens for October half term with decorated train carriages and family activities designed without scare actors or frightening decorations. Children can make paper pumpkins in the Waterworks Gallery and look for Marina the Mermaid and Splash the Cat around the museum. An optional Halloween scavenger hunt offers a small prize while supplies last. Train rides require museum admission; visitors in costume receive a free ride during the published costume promotion.
