James Hall Transport Museum, Transport museum in La Rochelle, Johannesburg, South Africa.

The James Hall Museum of Transport contains 2500 historical vehicles, including steam engines, trams, buses, cars, motorcycles, and animal-drawn carriages.

The museum, established in February 1964 through collaboration between Jimmie Hall and the City of Johannesburg, represents South Africa's largest transport collection.

The exhibits tell the story of local transportation through displays of rickshaws used until 1967 and various vehicles that shaped Johannesburg's development.

Located at Pioneers' Park on Rosettenville Road, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with free admission.

The collection includes Texas Jack steam tractor, the last electric double-decker tram from 1961, and rare Sentinel steam buses from Pilgrim's Rest.
