American family visit. Great railway museum with many exhibits and interactive displays. You have the ability to enter many of the train cars to see what they look like. They also have a huge train diorama that has a show about every 15-20 minutes which was a lot of fun. For an additional fee you can also play the train simulators. Many of the signs, displays, and videos have English which is a huge plus in enjoying the museum of you don't read Japanese. There is a cafe onsite as well as a young child play area. The food was good and was about 4300 yen for my three person family. Need about 3 hours for a semi-decent run through, longer to really take it all in.

Pretty awesome place to pay a visit with family! Cool playground for kids. My boy loves the 電車 and 新幹線 so much! There is a restaurant you can buy お弁当, and you can enjoy your meal outside in a real 新幹線 train.

First: there’s no dedicated parking so park across the street at the furniture store and follow the signs as you walk (you’ll pass by actual trash cans if you’re carrying trash). Second: tickets are cash only (1,000 for adults and 300-500 for kids). Third: not great for strollers as you can’t bring them inside the trains. We had an awesome visit here and enjoyed the displays and the history. You can board at least ten different trains from various eras and see many more full-size cars from the history of rail. From the first version of the Shin, to maglev prototypes, to old steam-powered sleeper cars, there is a huge assortment of trains to explore here. We had no wait getting into the museum but tickets for the “shin operator” and “locomotive operator” experiences were sold out. Fun location for families, train enthusiasts, and photographers.

The best way to spend a rainy day is by visiting museums. This museum definitely could not be missed during my stay in Nagoya. I like trains, so this could not be missed, especially if you travel around by bullet train through Japan. The museum is quite far from the city center, so a 20 minute train trip is required to get here. If you're lucky, you can sit in one of the trains with the Lego interior, cause the Lego museum is around the corner. There is a movie being played in the entrance hall of the museum, where three trains are positioned. In the main hall you will find a big collection of trains, from old to new. I liked the part where the current technology is shown for the Shinkansen trains, like the pantograph and upper power line. Some special trains which are used in the past are in the back of the hall. There is a big miniature train world as well, and please take your time here. At some point the room gets dark and represents the night. Everything is being led up and looks amazing. You can spend at least 2 to 3 hours in here.

Brought me back to my childhood years playing with LIMA trains.... This is an amazing place for kids and the family. We were treated to a drum performance by youth and kids, too, as it was the weekend. It's super convenient to visit as it's a point to point train from nagoya Station, the end point, which is just outside the museum.

Home of the famous Maglev train! An easy Jr train from Nagoya station will get you here in about 35 mins, the museum is right next to the station exit and easy to get to. Tickets cost ¥1,000 for adults, you can pay via the machine (has English) with ic, credit or cash. The train simulator is extra. There's lots of kids here, tons to see and experience here. A must visit for all train lovers and riders. Don't forget to get a bento and eat it in the shinkansen car outside on 1F.

The SCMAGLEV and Railway Park, Nagoya, Aichi, Japan A wonderful museum showcasing some of Japan's rich railway history. The experience begins from the moment you walk in the door and purchase your entry ticket - from a railway ticket vending machine! After passing through a set of barrier gates (exactly like those you will find at a commuter railway station!), you enter the Hall of Speed. Three incredible railway locomotives that hold speed records are showcased in this hall. Even if you are not fluent in Japanese, there is enough signage and information in English to learn more about these machines, and the speed records they hold. The main exhibition hall is behind the Hall of Speed, and this is where the bulk of the displays are. A wide variety of rolling stock is preserved in here - early-model Shinkansen units, locomotives, maintenance-of-way equipment (check out the track clearance carriage!), and passenger carriages. There is a very extensive model railway display which features a light and sound show that cycles through a "day and night". Be sure to make time to see this! A gift shop and cafe is located on site also. You can catch a train to the museum - take a train on the Aonami line to Kinjofuto station (this is the end of the line). The SCMAGLEV and Railway Park is a definite "MUST VISIT" for railway enthusiasts!

Very very cool railway museum! The train display (multiple of them!) are super impressive! You could walk into most/all of the retired train cars in the display room and really see its revolution! My 5yr old son is a big (little) train fan, and he had SO MUCH fun exploring (and playing a bit of hide and seek too) among the train cars! They have both 2 different kinds of train simulators for you to experience how driving a train is like: normal train for 100 yen (8-10 min), and Shinkansen simulator for 500 yen (~15 min, first come first served and you need to reserve for a specific time). Both were fun and recommended! We also really enjoyed the interactive exhibits on both first and second floor where you could learn about different parts and mechanics of the trains (mostly Japanese though). There is also a ticket machine where you could input and print out your own unique named tickets! Great free souvenir. They are a proper gift shop at the exit of the museum where you can find all kinds of cool and cute train/Shinkansen souvenirs as well! Surprised and super neat gem place for anyone visiting Nagoya!

Great railway museum, very popular with families. Exhibitions are primarily in Japanese but with highlights in English. It would be great if there were more information published in English for tourists. The diorama is lovely but there are definitely better ones in Europe.

If you love trains like me, you will spend a happy afternoon here. An easy day trip using the Rail-pass from Kyoto, its an easy switch to the local train. If you are on a budget, buy your lunch at the convenience store at the station as there are free tables to eat at the museum. I used the museum cafe and it was a little pricey, but lots of fun.

(Translated by Google) I think it's a sacred place where children can immerse themselves in distant memories as well as adults. Happy Doctor Yellow is on display. There is a shopping mall opposite. (Original) 子供にはもちろんのこと、大人にとっても遠い思い出に浸れる神聖な場所だと思います。 幸せのドクターイエローが展示されております。 向かいにショッピングモールがあります。

Good amount of information, with interactive exhibits to explain the technologies and systems. Unfortunately, only very basic information is translated into English, the rest are in Japanese. Best part, in my opinion, is their famed Diorama, featuring detailed models of 4 major train stations and train sets through the years. The trains run automatically and the tracks and lights switch accordingly to regulate train traffic. Some models are also animated to show the different activities from day to night, like a bus running around the roads and avoiding parked vehicles, an ambulance and fire engine attending to a fire, a ferry sailing in the harbor, a moving merry go round.

(Translated by Google) There is no parking lot at the SCMAGLEV and Railway Park, and you can park at the nearest "Kinjo Pier Parking Lot". You can arrive in about 10 minutes on foot. You can also use this parking lot when you go to Legoland. Shinkansen and locomotives line up with Dawn from the entrance, and you will be overwhelmed. Trains owned by JR Central are displayed side by side, and if you look at the exhibited vehicles in an S shape, you can look forward to today's pedometer. And there are many cars on conventional lines. Even though I am not familiar with trains, I enjoy watching the trains by looking up the train symbol of "Kumoha" on the Internet. Also, since I grew up on the Kintetsu Railway and the Osaka Loop Line, the old-fashioned interior has a different nostalgia than it is now, and I remembered going to school by train when I was a student. (Original) リニア鉄道館には駐車場は無く、最寄りの「金城ふ頭駐車場」に停めます。 徒歩10分ほどで到着出来ます。 レゴランドなどに行くときも、この駐車場利用です。 エントランスより新幹線や機関車などがドーンと並び、圧倒されます。 JR東海所有の列車が所狭しと並んで展示していて、S字に展示車両を見ていくと今日の万歩計が楽しみです。 と、在来線の車両もたくさんあります。 私は電車汽車に詳しくない中で「クモハ」の電車記号をネットで調べたりして楽しく車両を見学しています。 また、かつて近鉄電車と大阪環状線で育ったので、古めかしい内装が今とは違う懐かしさがあったりで、学生の頃の電車通学などを思い出したりしていました。

Given Japan's extraordinary train system and network, this attraction could be better presented, and more thorough. Whilst there are many displays, explanations are quite often shallow, and incomplete. Even as a speaker of Japanese, I was left with many questions after reading the displays. The English explanations were birding on scarce. Also disappointing was the inability to get a booking on the Shinkansen simulator. I arrived very early, and found that it was already booked out until late afternoon. This needs to be better managed. Having said that, this is still a worthwhile place to visit - I just suggest that you come prepared for an exhibition which doesn't reach the usually high Japanese standards.

Right beside a train station, and cheap parking close by. Great for kids of all ages! Good size museum you and your family can spend a full day. Great lunch options as you can try many different train lunchboxes, be sure to show up early for the best selection。。。♡

Very interesting museum of JR trains back to the 19th century. They really want you to go there by train -- no parking provided. You need to park across the road at the Dome store. Don't go to the multistage parking lot for Legoland, it's a long walk!

A must visit for railfans! I love the rolling stock display, with some of them you can even enter and take pictures in. Ever wondered what trains looked like in the old days, before modern subways and bullet trains? What I love especially is that the museum caters to non-Japanese speaking visitors with English guides all around the place. Don’t miss the Delica Station on the second floor, for some train bento served in actual, plastic train containers you can take back home. Lunch and souvenir in one.

It's a great display of trains and technology. Kids love it! But we went here for a date and it's still worth it. I enjoyed the interactive displays and the theater where they simulate how it would be if you were to ride the Maglev train.

SCMaglev Railway Park in Nagoya is a great place to learn about the latest maglev technology and get close to many high-speed trains, including the very first Shinkansen from 1964. Great to see so much pride for Japanese technology at SCMAGLEV and Railway Park in Nagoya. It is an excellent place to visit, not just for the Shinkansen history and maglev future but has so many old rolling stock from years past that you can get up close and enjoy what it must have been like to travel in.

Nice place to visit if you are interested in the history of railroad and Shinkansen in Japan. The early years of train station, research and development of the bullet train are well documented inside the museum. There is also place where children can play inside,a canteen inside to those who want to eat snacks and lunch and souvenir shop for your memorable visit in the park.

If you love trains, and would like to know the history of the Japanese railway system, this is the best place to go. My family & I took a cab to & from the museum since the place is far from the more popular Nagoya tourist spots, but it was well worth the trip. If you want to fully "immerse" yourself with all the displays & the attractions, it will take 3-4hours to see everything. Also, the staff was pretty helpful since we don't speak Japanese.

(Translated by Google) There are too few places to install disinfection. There are shops and places to eat (tables, chairs), but everyone ate with gyukyu. Overall, I wanted you to take a little more corona measures. (No disinfection in the toilet) There is a souvenir shop separately. Also, it's a dark place, so I think some small children are scared. I wish I had reversed the back and front ... (Original) 消毒の設置箇所が少な過ぎです。売店や食べる場所（テーブル、イス）もありますが、ギュウギュウ詰めでみんな食べてました。全体的にもう少しコロナ対策をして欲しいと思いました。（トイレにも消毒なし） お土産売場、別にあります。 あと、入ったそうそう暗い場所なので、小さい子は怖がる子もいると思います。奥と手前を逆にしたら良かったのに、、、。

It's a great place to visit with family and friends. If you like to know the history of japanese trains, you must come here. The price for adults is 1000 JPY. There are some restuarants/ souvenir shop inside the premises. I specially liked the Shinkansen history and the evolution of the trains. There are also places for kids to enjoy like making model trains/tracks. They allow to visit the inside of some of the trains. Great museum 5/5

(Translated by Google) It was very beautiful and I thought it would be nice to be able to re-enter. Currently, some vehicles cannot enter due to the influence of Corona. The Shinkansen simulator is played only once per group. If you go with more than one person, you can only play one, so you need to take turns during play. You can drive the conventional line as many times as you like, and the price is reasonable at 100 yen. The conventional line has two cabs, 313 series and 211 series. I thought there were a lot of diamonds and there was a lot of variety. There was a shop on the 2nd floor, and about 10 types of ekiben were sold. The average price was about 1100 yen. Shinkansen seats were prepared in the break space, and the seats of the Green Car were fluffy and very comfortable. There are facilities that you can experience as if you were riding a linear motor car, and it was a masterpiece to see the vibrations and scenery. For lunch, in addition to the ekiben I mentioned earlier, I think the Daily Yamazaki under Kinjofuto Station, which is about a 5-minute walk away, is good. ======================= access Nagoya Station = Aonami Line Nagoya Station = Kinjofuto Station = Walk = SCMAGLEV and Railway Park About 40 minutes from Nagoya Station (Original) とても、綺麗な作りになっていて再入場もできていいと思いました。 現在コロナの影響で一部車両には立ち入る事が出来ません。 新幹線シュミレーターは、1組1回だけのプレイとなっています。複数人で行く場合、1プレイしかできないのでプレイ中に交代する必要があります。 在来線の運転は、何度でもできますし100円とお手頃な価格となっています。在来線は313系と211系の２つの運転台があります。沢山のダイヤがありバラエティに富んでると思いました。 2階に売店があり、駅弁が10種類ほど販売してありました。平均価格は1100円程でした。 休憩スペースには、新幹線の座席が用意されており、グリーン車の座席はふかふかでとても座り心地が良かったです。 リニアモーターカーの乗っているかのような体験できる設備も整っていて、振動や景色が流れるのには、圧巻の一言でした。 昼ごはんは、先程言った駅弁の他にも歩いて5分ほどの金城ふ頭駅下のデイリーヤマザキがいいかと思います。 ======================= アクセス 名古屋駅=あおなみ線名古屋駅=金城ふ頭駅=徒歩=リニア・鉄道館 名古屋駅から約40分ほど

(Translated by Google) There is nothing I can do about it in Corona, but it is quiet and nothing but the model is moving. The exhibition vehicle cannot be put inside. I want to go there again when it's in great shape, but it's a step lower than Saitama and Kyoto. The Tokaido Shinkansen is the main exhibit for the linear emphasis. (Original) コロナでどうしようもないのだろうが、閑散としていて、模型以外は動いていない。展示車両も中には入れない。絶好調の時にもう一度行きたいが、埼玉、京都と比べると一段落ちる。リニア強調する割には東海道新幹線が展示の主力。

(Translated by Google) 2021/1/9 Due to the fact that the corona is over, the number of visitors to the Linear Railway Museum is very small. Maybe there are more staff than customers? I can think of it. However, because there were few people, I could take a closer look. Also, it was very easy to take pictures. However, I'm worried if there are so few people. 2017/3/25 Required if you like trains, required if you have a boy, recommended if not. I think it's a place that both enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts can enjoy. The Shinkansen and linear trains are simply cool, and the SL is also cool. The diorama is also beautiful. There are many interesting souvenirs. There is no reason to decide not to go. Let's go to the Linear Railroad Museum and go to Maker's Pier for lunch. Let's liven up Kinjo Pier together so that the maker's pier will not collapse. (Original) 2021/1/9 コロナ過という事も有り、リニア・鉄道館もすごく入場者が少ないです。お客さんよりスタッフの数のが多いのでは？と思えるほどです。 でも、人が少ない分ゆっくり・じっくり見て回れました。また、写真もすごく撮りやすかったです。 ただ、ここまで人が少ないとやっていけるのか心配にはなります。 2017/3/25 鉄道好きなら必須、男の子が居ても必須、そうじゃなくてもお勧め。 マニアもそうでない方も楽しめる所だと思います。 単純に新幹線やリニアはかっこいい、ＳＬもかっこいい。 ジオラマも美しい。お土産も面白い物いっぱいある。 行かないと決めつける理由はありません。 リニア鉄道館に行って、お昼ご飯はメーカーズピアに行きましょう。 みんなで金城ふ頭を盛り上げてメーカーズピアがつぶれないようにしましょう。

(Translated by Google) JR Tokai Museum where you can learn about the history of Japanese railways. Trains and railroads that I casually ride every day 🚃🚋. If you go to the museum here, the appearance of the train may change! I learned 👍🏻 (Original) 日本の鉄道の歴史について学ぶことが出来るJR東海の博物館。日々何気なく乗車している電車や鉄道🚃🚋。 ここの博物館に行くと電車の見え方が変わってくるかもしれません！勉強になりました👍🏻

(Translated by Google) Since it was a self-restraint period, it was super rattling and was seen slowly in a chartered state. All the simulations had no waiting time. A dining car on the 0 series Shinkansen that I used to ride when I was a kid. A 100 series train that I used to ride when I was a university student or a member of society. It's memorable. For the 117 series cars that were previously placed outside, only the leading car is placed indoors, and instead, three N700 series cars that left the line last year are placed. There is no restaurant or cafeteria in the building, so you will have to buy ekiben and eat in free space. (Original) 自粛期間なので超ガラガラで貸切状態でゆっくり見られました。シュミレーションも全て待ち時間０分でした。自分の子供の頃によく乗った０系新幹線車両に食堂車。大学～社会人の頃によく乗った100系車両。思い出深いです。以前外に置かれていた117系車両は先頭車両のみ屋内に置かれ、代わりに昨年一線を退いたN700系車両が３両置かれています。館内にレストランや食堂は無く駅弁等を購入してフリースペースで食べる事になります。

A wonderful collection of Japanese locomotives through the ages, and a preview of the futuristic maglev service that is due to come into operation in the next decade. Some interesting exhibits on how things are kept running today adds to a great experience, suitable for all ages. Worth the admission fee for sure.

Worth a visit but not a priority. Only if you will enjoy trains or have kids that love Maglev trains. Cheap and easy to get to. Not far from the train station. Clean toilets. Not crowded so you can get tickets when you get there. They also have simulations. Lots of rest benches. Lots of actual train models you can enter. Also a decent gift shop.

(Translated by Google) It's irresistible for train lovers! 😍💕 I love the Shinkansen \ (^^) / I love JR! \ (^^) / I love diorama! \ (^^) / So I love it too! 🤣💕 Why are there no cats in the diorama! !!

Came in with high expectations after visiting the Kyoto railway museum a year ago and while I can't say it's disappointing as the train displays are definitely amazing, the content and context are both lacking. JR Central Japan has positioned the space as a place to "display" technologies with the maglev as the centerpiece, and hence there is not much about the most profitable/critical section of Japan's bullet train. It is also disappointing in a sense that the most financially viable JR operator in all of Japan is spending so little on its showcase. The forward looking mindset doesn't serve a museum space very well, as now we know the maglev train project is very much in limbo with Shizuoka reluctant to green-light the construction. Perhaps it's time to rethink the space and consider an expansion to incorporate more substantial materials rather than kids' playroom.

This museum park is perfect for train lovers like me. One gets to see how Japanese trains evolve throughout the years. It's amazing to see information and reel on maglev with top speed of 500kph!

Perfekt für Fans der japanischen Eisenbahn. Man geht einmal die ganze Bahngeschichte durch wie die Nachkriegszeit und dann der erste Shinkansen 1964. Zu jedem ausgestellten Zug gibt es Infos. Entweder über den Audioguide, der über das kostenlose Wi-Fi in verschiedenen Sprachen zugänglich ist, oder über Tafeln und Monitore die direkt am Zug stehen. Diese sind auch für Blinde Menschen ausgelegt. Zusätzlich gibt es Informationen zum neuen Bahnsystem, der Maglev. Es gibt ein Kino, Simulatoren und Stationen an denen man selbst experimentieren kann. Man kann hier also ganz gut Zeit verbringen.

Officially Amazing. Especially the show that exhibits moving trains with various times of the day and linear train experience movie are just awesome.

The 新幹線 simulation is best but the whole place is smaller and with less variety of games than in 京都

Even if you’re not a train fan, it is fun entering the interior of trains and learning how trains work. They also had this little booth about how the new maglev Shinkansen works as well. Highly recommend the train driving experience because it is great fun for all. There are also English instructions if you do not know any Japanese.

They have English!!! I love trains. This the the third major train museum I've been to in Japan. The Kyoto one is probably "better" but has ZERO English. This place had English on almost everything, so obviously if you don't read fluenty in Japanese which I sure can't, this is the better musesm. You can spend a good 1/3 to 1/2 a day here.

Not bad as a museum. But compare with Kyoto railway museum, it’s totally worse. Bad access(far from downtown deep inside the industrial port so the view is bad as well), less trains, bad layout, poor outdoor exhibition. But the railway model is pretty good.

Fantastic place to learn about Maglev technology and the developments of locomotives. Great place for family with kids and easy access from Nagoya station.

Cool place to discover the history of Japan’s Train industry. They provide from the very old to the latest trains in japan. You go inside to specific train models and see a lot of information.

We were there for the kids. We weren't expecting much, but we ended up spending half a day there. Not just looking at stationary trains but there were simulators and other interactive attractions. We enjoyed it even as adults.

Very Good place to see different kinds of train set and you can also drive the train by simulation.

Another one of the best museums in Japan. Not to be missed if you have an interest in tech, trains or history.

Really good exposition about locomotive technology and Japan railway's history. Highly recommendable for kids.

A good place to know about the history and future of Japan Railway. An impressive museum! (Remarks: Museum is a bit far from city centrr so should reserve half a day to visit there.)

I went here with a friend visiting from America, and I was impressed. We both thought it would be a quick trip through, but we ended up spending nearly the whole day here looking at trains. You can go inside some of the retired train cars (most of them, really), there are multiple exhibits on various aspects of JR trains and bullet trains, a whole room of model trains that run twice an hour, and they even had an English version of their ride experience that the lady offered to run for us. Lots of information, tons of trains and model trains, and there’s even a small cafe where you can buy ekiben themed foods. You can easily spend a whole day here if you like trains or history.

We visited Nagoya for a day to catch up with one of my sons schools friends who lives there with his family. After a delightful lunch they took us all to the JR Railway Park Museum. I have never see anything quiet like it. Even if your not a train buff it’s simply awesome and well worth a visit. The Kids loved it as well !

Very nice place for people who love trains and technology in general. A couple of hours is enough to explore every corner of the museum. Has a wide range of interactive media that explain the Japanese train history and its development, I was personally intrigued by the train diorama they had. Very informative for kids too! Thanks for the wonderful place!

Must Visit in Nagoya if You are interested in knowing the Evolution of Railways in Japan!!!! Video Demonstration of track changing, Monitoring of distance b/w each Shinkansen🚅 route, Nagoya city railway miniature etc is really awesome to see.

A cool place to visit in Nagoya. You will witness how trains evolved in Japan. You can also try simulations by paying additional fees or if you're lucky, there's a raffle draw for a free experience.

A good collection of all sorts of trains and railroad related items. It's especially nice to visit during hot or rainy day as it's all covered (Expect a fancy train outside as a break area).

You can discover various historical and modern rolling stocks, locomotives and even MAGLEV of Japanese railway.

Awesome place is you like trains and specially the Bullet Trains. They also have the most impressive Diorama from Tokyo to Osaka

Train lovers will enjoy this place. Besides the rolling stock of different trains which are open for us to enter, view and snap photos, there are also interactive exhibits to explain the concept of maglev technology, super magnet conductor and evolution of the shinkansen train. There's also a simulator ride. Good to purchase your slot early if you are keen to try it.. Cost 500yen for a 15mins ride on either shinkansen or regular train crew. There is also a separate queue for a 10mins simulator experience on the regular train (similar to arcade game) for 100 yen. Factor in at least 2hrs for the experience. We spend 4hrs including lunch here! Lunch has some limited edition sets with the train bento. But do grab this early before its sold out. We ate at 1pm, only 3 types of bento sets remained.

An amazing collection of Japan's most iconic rolling stocks and railway related technologies. The museum can be accessed from downtown Nagoya by taking the Aonami Railway to Kinjofuto station. After purchasing tickets, the speed recorders of the Japanese railways, a C62 steam locomotive which hauled the famous Tsubame night trains, the 300X shinkansen test vehicle and a section of a maglev welcome the visitor. In the main hall behind one can find even more delicacies, including the evolution of the vehicles used on the Tokaido and Sanyo shinkansen. Well worth the visit as the museum introduces a key part of Japan's modern history.

Good History and how the Shinkansen works. Very nice place to visit. Lot's of classic models from a long time ago until the new age.

Has a lot of hands-on activities for the kids to enjoy while the adults admire the trains. In addition to that do queue up for trying out the train simulator (100 yen per play). Don't forget to catch the fantastic trains diorama which starts on every 30 minutes.

Really interesting exhibition! Everything you need to know is also available in English. You can walk through most of the trains or at least enter them.

Great train museum with a key focus on maglev technology with a room dedicated to the upcoming L0 maglev train. There are fantastic train simulators too. Easily spent 2-3 hours here especially if you have kids who are crazy about trains. One of the most interesting is the first room that you enter as it has some of the fastest trains of their times.

We did not plan on going here until last minute, especially since we saw it was right next to Legoland (5 minute walk from the Legoland Hotel). Kids were dreading another museum and they lived this one. Many interactive things for kids to do, I wish I had alotted more time to this as they had fun going through all the trains and pressing all the buttons to see how different parts of the trains work. There are some parts where you pay extra like the train simulator and bullet train simulator. Like many museums in Japan, they also have papers for kids to go find stamps located throughout the museum. If you are remotely into trains or have kids, this may be a place to add to your itinerary. We spent about an hour here but kind of rushed it and could have spent more time here.

Easily one of the best train museums that I’ve ever visited in the whole world. Visited it once and I swore that I would take my children with me to visit here again. On my 2nd visit after several years, not much has changed but it was still a pleasant experience. We easily spent 3+ hours here, a lot of activities to be had, including theater featuring the history of the shinkansen and also history of doctor yellow, the famous shinkansen. On my way out, I mentioned to the information desk that I really love this museum and she gave my children a pin each. I will definitely visit this place again every time I visit Nagoya city.

(Translated by Google) Children are boring just by looking at them, and even if valuable vehicles are good, I think it's more fun to ride and sit on things in recent years. It seems a little different from the Railway Museum (Original) ただ見るだけでは子供はつまらない、貴重な車両は良いとしても近年の物は乗れたり座れたりしたほうが楽しいと思う。 鉄道博物館とは少し違うようですね

(Translated by Google) I love 2 year old kids and I often go there. I like the Shinkansen, steam locomotives, electric locomotive exhibits, dioramas, and Plarail playgrounds. There are also several diaper changing spaces, so even children can go with peace of mind. Ekiben is sold at noon, so I eat it, but I feel it is expensive because it is the ekiben price. (Original) 2歳の子供が大好きでよく行きます。 新幹線や蒸気機関車、電気機関車の展示、ジオラマ、プラレールの遊び場がお気に入りです。オムツ替えスペースもいくつかあり、子連れでも安心して行けます。お昼は駅弁が売ってるのでそれを食べますが、駅弁価格なので高いと感じます。

(Translated by Google) I've been to the Omiya Railway Museum and the Kyoto Railway Museum, but this is my first time here. You can see and feel many vehicles up close, including the Shinkansen and linear motor cars. There are also a conductor / driver simulator, a diorama, etc., so I think you can enjoy various things. I'm glad I came. (Original) 大宮の鉄道博物館と京都鉄道博物館は行ったことありましたが、ここは初めて来ました。 新幹線やリニアモーターカーをはじめ、数多くの車両が間近で見たり感じたりできます。 車掌・運転士シミュレーター、ジオラマなどもあり、いろいろと楽しめると思います。 来て良かったです。

(Translated by Google) In the train simulator experience, it seems that you can jump in on the conventional line, but I think that it is necessary to make an early reservation for the Shinkansen. There are some vehicles that have restrictions on the inside of the vehicle with the new Corona, but it seems that the windows are probably opened and the wide old cars are open. It takes 5 hours to go through the history of trains, vehicle explanations, and experiences. You can buy ekiben at the Delica in the hall (Original) 電車シミュレータ体験では、在来線は飛び入りでもできそうですが、新幹線は早めの予約が必要性があるとおもいます。 新型コロナで車輌内の見学制限をされている車輌がありますが、たぶん窓が開けられ、広めの古車が開放されているようです。 電車の歴史や車輌説明、体験などを一通りすると５時間はかかる容量。 館内でのデリカで駅弁を買えます

(Translated by Google) It is a pity that the linear opening is delayed. I've heard that it was due to some trouble in Shizuoka, but I would like it to open soon. I think the fare is a little expensive at first, but I definitely want to ride it! !! !! It was very interesting to see the precise models on display! (Original) リニア開通が遅れていて残念です。 何か静岡でのトラブルのせいだとかは聞いていますが、早く開通してほしいものです。始めは少し高額運賃だとおもうのですが、絶対乗りたい！！！ 精密なモデルが展示されててすごく面白かったです！

(Translated by Google) was fun (Original) 楽しかった

(Translated by Google) When I entered the museum, I was surprised to see the actual C62 and Shinkansen test car Linear. Everywhere in the hall is a wonderful exhibition, and it seems that Tetsu-chan fans for adults will be more pleased than children. We recommend going by train rather than by car. (The price is high and it seems to be JR!) Lunch was delicious with Nagoya's famous miso katsu bento ❗ (Original) 入館するといきなりC62や新幹線試験車リニアの実物がお出迎え、度肝を抜かされた思いです。館内はどこも素晴らしい展示で子供より大人向け鉄ちゃんファンが喜びそうです。車より電車で行くことをお薦めします。(料金が高くやはりJRさんらしいですな‼)昼食は名古屋名物味噌カツ弁当が美味しかった❗

It is a heaven for train lovers! They have a lot of different shinkansen on display, you can even enter the cabin on most of them, a variety of some old and latest train including experimental maglev trains also on display. There are also train simulator for both shinkansen as well as regular commuter trains available at a very fair price. Kids friendly and adult will have a very fun time here as well! Highly recommended!

(Translated by Google) An on-parade of nostalgic vehicles. (Original) 懐かしの車両のオンパレード。

Never even thought I would be so excited after visiting this museum. So interesting, there's explanations everywhere in Japanese and English, and it's full of interactive experiences. The Shinkansen driving simulator (fee charged) and the Maglev riding simulator (free) are the highlights. The museum is easily reached from Nagoya station via Aonami line in 30min.

Much better experience than expected. The Shinkansen simulation was amazing, the diorama is beautiful. It is worthy.

(Translated by Google) Railway/train fans must come! And there are many interesting experiences, fun! (Original) 鐵道/火車迷一定要來！而且有很多有趣的體驗，好玩！

I could say it was the best railway museum I’ve ever been. The kids will enjoy and having so much fun exploring various type of trains. Recommend the kid’s play room on the 2nd floor which they can play with the set of railways toy for 1 hour. The simulator rides was really cool! There was no parking on site so I parked my car at Dome furniture (2 hours free of charges).

(Translated by Google) The attitude of dismantling the preserved vehicles one after another is questionable. There is really no attitude to defeat railway cultural properties. (Original) 保存車両を平然と次々に解体する姿勢は疑問。鉄道文化財を反故にする姿勢は本当にありえない。

(Translated by Google) I went on a date. I'm not interested in trains at all, but I enjoyed it very much. It was a meaningful time to feel the history because I put it in the train on display. It's a little from Nagoya, but isn't it good to take a leisurely trip on the Aonami Line? (Original) デートで行きました。全く電車には興味がありませんがとても楽しめました。展示されている電車の中に入れたりするので歴史を感じたり有意義な時間になりました。名古屋からちょっとありますがあおなみ線でのんびり行くのも良いのでは？

(Translated by Google) Recommended on weekdays (Original) 平日がおすすめ
