Welcome to the Wirral Transport Museums. Birkenhead is a town packed with transport heritage, it is the home of Cammell Lairds shipyard and the home of the European tramway. George Francis Train chose Birkenhead for the first European tramway, back in 1860. Mr Train made an agreement that if the tramway was unsuccessful, he would return Birkenhead's streets to their original state with his own money. Luckily the tramway was a success and operated until 1937 when the petrol motor bus took hold.
