    Norfolk Tank Museum, UK

    Just a few hasty shots as I was leaving, a little of the beaten track but well worth a visit if you are in the area. Has a small collection of military small arms, great staff and you can crawl over and in most displays.

    Incredible that it is purely volunteer funded and managed. Also worth a visit is WMAHM on the Isle of Wight.

    Bovington Camp (UK) / Le Musée de la Cavalerie de Saumur (France) are also quite impresive.

    I know a Cummins engine dealer in Alberta who's wife literally had to drag his ass out of that place like he was a four year boy.

    Must be a good place. I was told the local's love to talk about their project.

    Thank you Mister Wolverine.

    I believe that may be the one where my father and uncle were driving by about 12 years ago and stopped in the day they were closed. One guy was outside and asked them where they were from and when they said Canada he said they were more than welcome in for a couple of hours. Apparently they were class act guys and answered any questions asked of them.

    I'm going to England this September, and the big stop is Bovington. I'll see if we are touring near Norfolk.

    The tank museum in Oshawa Ontario is very impressive as well.

    If you're ever on the other side of the planet there's a fairly large museum in Cairns, Australia in Queensland. Don't get to play on the exhibits but theres a very broad and big selection of vehicles including some from the 1970-80's.
