Revolutions
Transport Museum is much more than the State’s only land transport
museum – it is an engaging exhibition that showcases the
far-reaching impact that our transport choices and technology changes have made, and are
making, on Western Australian lives and landscapes.
As the home of the Whiteman Collection - the Park’s namesake, Lew Whiteman’s bequest to the people of Western Australia - Revolutions will open your eyes to some of the fascinating land transport stories and technological developments that have shaped our past and will impact on our future.
Interactive exhibits give a sense of the past, from climbing aboard a horse-drawn buggy to climbing into the drivers seat of our EJ Holden; while the captivating Singing the Train exhibit journeys the Pilbara by rail through the voice of the Nyamal people.
Each quarter, different objects from the Collection are displayed in Collection Store window and foyer displays, while temporary and travelling exhibitions build upon the museum's stories, so there is always something different to see and explore in this family-friendly, accessible space.

Digital collection
You can now search Revolution's growing digital catalogue of objects on Collections WA and learn about some of the items that are normally in storage and out of public view. Collections WA is an online platform where you can discover unique cultural, creative and community stories from WA collections. Digitising our collection prolongs the future of these historic objects by creating a digital version of it for future generations, while also providing access to objects across the wider community. The museum team are regularly updating the catalogue as they undertake research and accessioning of the many items in the Whiteman Collection.
