The APT-P museum can be found inside one of the carriages, with photographs on display from the APT project. The set was tilted for the first time in preservation in 2013. In early 2018, an additional surviving APT powercar (M49006) arrived at the museum. It is displayed separately alongside the main set. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Miniature_Railway">Miniature Railway</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Crewe_Heritage_Centre&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Miniature Railway"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Constructed in 1992, the Crewe Heritage Centre Miniature Railway is a 600 metre long 184mm (7.25 in) gauge ride, the railway takes visitors on a trip from ‘Crewe Old Works’ station to ‘Spider Bridge’ station via Forge End station and the optional return journey.
