There were some interesting items in the museum building including the actual chairs used by Queen Elizabeth when she visited Nairobi, and we were allowed to sit in them 😊
Some of the really old looking stuff was still on use in the 1980’s

this chair was used on what was called the lunatic line, read the note, it was bolted on front of the train so important people could see the view..
