Good

Very accessible and helpful staff. Only marked it down one star due to construction works going on and the disabled parking being 150+mtrs away from the entrance. It would be possible to drop someone off closer to the door and move the car though I think. Not able to get up on the ramps to look in the carriages (as they are accessed by steps) but realistically what would you see anyway - some seats and tables. Museum is free to visit, donations optional. Disabled toilets and quiet space if needed. Staff easily approachable.

Average

By car. Blue badge holders can get their parking ticket validated for free to save paying the £10 charge. Car park is 150+mtrs from entrance. There is a road train that runs to and from York Minster that you need to pay for.
