On display you'll see a diverse variety of exhibits from coaches of yesteryear, motorcycles and race cars, various displays on the local history of Nymboida and even costume displays from two of Hollywood's biggest blockbusters, Gladiator and Master And Commander.
The centre piece of this eclectic collection is the replica of the giant "Leviathan" stage coach, originally built in 1859 by Lawrence Elhannan Cutter. This was the largest horse-drawn Cobb and Co Coach ever built and ran between Ballarat and Geelong from 1859 to 1863, carrying up to 100 passengers and being drawn by as many as 22 horses!
