It's all aboard for our children's competition hunt this month. Your young museum explorers can search for runaway toy trains hidden around the museum. Enter our competition for a chance to be the winner of a goody bag of great souvenirs from our shop.
There's fantastic crafts too. Decorate a ceramic train for £1.50 plus free activity sheets and a cosy reading corner to enjoy.
Love trains? There's our railway exhibition to explore too. On Track: A Glimpse into Lancashire's Railways Past and Present is free to visit in the Steward's Gallery until 31 January.
See toys, artefacts and photographs. There's puzzles and games too
