Gloucester Waterways Museum is housed in a Victorian warehouse at Gloucester Docks in the city of Gloucester, England. It is located along the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal and River Severn. The museum features a collection of boats including narrowboats, river barges, canal and river tugs, and a steam powered dredger. There is also a steam crane and heavy oil engine in the setting of a canal repair yard, complete with working machine shop, forge and weighbridge, and a hydraulic accumulator. The museum uses modern interactive techniques and hands on exhibits, which includes a model of canal. It is one of several museums and attractions operated by the Canal & River Trust, the successor to The Waterways Trust. ==History== The museum was formerly known as the "National Waterways Museum, Gloucester", one of three museums operated by The Waterways Trust that focused on the history of canals in Britain. Despite refurbishments completed in 2008, in the Summer of 2010 the Gloucester site lost its national status and was renamed the Gloucester Waterways Museum.〔(BBC news website - Waterways Museum in Gloucester to lose national status(14 March, 2010) )〕 The National Waterways Museum in Ellesmere Port and The Canal Museum, Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire are the other canal museums operated by the Canal & River Trust.
