The
Association of British Transport & Engineering Museums, a non profit-making group, exists to provide a forum for the discussion
of matters of common interest to transport and engineering museums and to provide a means of representing their views on issues
of national and regional concern. We also hold regular meetings at museums and heritage
sites in the UK.
In September 2012 following a successful funding application to Arts Council England, ABTEM is
now the nationally-recognised Subject Specialist Network for Transport & Industrial Museums.
