we have been invited to visit Rolls Royce aeroengines own private museum at the Training centre Victory Road (just off the A5111 at peartree roundabout) Derby.
meet in the car park (mind the speed bumps) and park under the big silver Rolls Royce sign for photos. by 4.30pm.
the museum covers the whole story of the company and includes some early cars and planes as well as cut away engines.
the training centre itself has full working engines from the current complete range and (hopefully if we are not running late) we will be taken on a guided tour around these aswell.
im also trying to get the lady who runs the Rolls shop to stay behind for us as Rolls do some great gifts/clothing at very reasonable prices.
Tour of Museum is FREE. there is a staff canteen with vending machines for refreshments so you'll need change for these. security is strict so i will need to know names in advance. (ladies the loos are 5* as its part of Roll Royce VIP visitor centre)
