The Steam Museum, Steam technology museum in Stradbally, Ireland.
The Steam Museum displays a collection of model locomotives, operating stationary steam engines, and mechanical engineering models from the industrial era.
Founded in 1988 by Robert C Guinness, the museum includes the relocated Victorian Gothic building from Inchicore Railway works that served railway engineers.
The museum exhibits the Halpin Collection, containing pieces from the first transatlantic cable connection between Valencia Island and Newfoundland.
