The museum is based in the Miners' Welfare Hall in Thornley, where my parents had their wedding reception; I've not visited it yet, though I think they have only a small display area and most of their major work is online.
I can't think of a suitable introduction to coal mining - industrial history hasn't been my area. There must be something useful somewhere.
