I am planning to visit Bletchley Park and the
Babbage exhibit at the London Science Museum.
In the Science Museum, look out for the "Making of the Modern World"
gallery on the ground floor, towards the back. I think you go through
the Space gallery to get to it from the main entrance, after you pass
the steam engines. There's an Apple I, the Pilot Ace, a Cray-1 and the
Pegasus. Not sure if/when the Pegasus is got up and running.
In the basement, there are a few smaller home computers and game
consoles in "The Secrect Life of the Home". Then there's the main
Computing gallery upstairs, which I think is where you'll find the
Babbage Engine.
