This is a niche travel and news blog about historic, mechanical and technical attractions, sites and museums.
I write about battlefield sites, technical museums, armed forces museums, military history, factory tours, transport infrastructure, electric vehicles, amazing engineering & architecture, industrial heritage… and where you can see it.
After decades of writing and broadcasting about travel and destinations in general, I now concentrate on seeing things on my travels that really interest me, and I hope, you. It’s an eclectic mix – I’m interested in places where stuff happened and places that curate it.
Who am I?
I am Alastair McKenzie. I’ve been a travel journalist/editor since 1989, originally in local, then national radio before moving online just before the millennium. I’ve been an active member of the travel blogger & social media community since it started and a regular speaker at social media travel conferences. I’m a member of the British Guild of Travel Writers, and co-author of Bradt: D-Day Landings – A travel guide to Normandy’s beaches and battlegrounds.

Mechtraveller is a classic niche blog. By definition it has a small but tightly targeted audience. I’ll happily talk about direct advertising and campaigns. See my ‘live’ stats.
