Fantastic displays in this museum ranging from hands on interactive scientific exhibits which really got the kids involved, to dinosaur fossils found in the region, and of course, the incredible display of original Cobb&Co memorabilia including horse drawn coaches and buggies and various pieces of other equipment. All beautifully restored to their original condition. We really enjoyed the whole experience including food we had in the restaurant found just inside the entrance of the museum.

The items on display are interesting. Good for kids as well. Their is a cafe as well.
Love this quirky museum. Authentic horse drawn vehicles, blacksmith and carpentry/wheelright shops, kids activities and rotating exhibits (currently all about Roman technology). Museum shop is a bit pricey. Cafe does a nice coffee (hubby says) and snacks. Tea is unfortunately very average, made with scalding water from the coffee machine.
One science room with about 8 great hands-on exhibits for children. Displays on Cobb & Co interesting, and great to see the carriages, but would have been good to have had some more dates displayed. Large chocolate milkshakes, delicious scones with jam and cream. Small shop full of items suitable for children, and some nice things for adults.
So much to look at great place to take kids ...
Interesting collection of wagons etc from the Cobb & Co period, along with a Roman exhibit (temp to Apr 2021), showing Roman engineering prowess.
Nice visit to Toowoomba and the Cobb & Co museum. The Roman exhibition (running concurrently) aimed at children however it was worth a look if only to make fun of the Rwomans and Britannica Inferior.
Visited during COVID restrictions, was very safely done & benefit was a small crowd. I found the museum wonderful. Intriguing stories & history of the Cobb & Co range of transport. Some great hands on science displays, beautiful history of Aboriginal life & amazing array of wagons.
