The
RomanceCar
Museum
is
a
museum
dedicated
to
the
Odakyu
express
train
that
runs
from
Shinjuku
to
Hakone-Yumoto.
When
you
enter,
there
are
machines
on
the
right
to
buy
tickets
and
there’s
usually
a
staffer
nearby
to
help
buy
tickets
and
it’s
nice
that
you
can
pay
in
either
cash,
credit
card
or
even
with
you
Suica
or
PASMO
card!
Once
you
buy
your
ticket
and
show
the
staffer,
you
take
the
escalator
down
to
the
first
floor
and
there’s
the
very
first
Odakyu
train
called
the
MOHA
1
and
right
next
to
it
is
a
projector
with
a
short
film
exposing
the
history
of
the
Odakyu
line
and
the
subsequent
birth
of
the
RomanceCar
express
train
to
the
beat
of
catchy
music
along
with
a
tap
dancer.
Once
you
finish
the
short
film,
you
can
head
to
the
next
room
with
life
size
older
RomanceCar
trains
that
were
in
service
back
in
the
day.
There’s
even
a
small
play
area
for
kids
to
play
with
model
trains
and
for
a
separate
fee,
can
make
their
very
own
train
model.
Once
you’re
done
with
the
first
floor,
you
can
walk
up
the
ramp
to
the
second
floor
and
it’ll
take
you
to
a
play
area,
as
well
as
making
your
own
paper
RomanceCar
train,
as
well
as
a
train
simulator
you
can
ride
on
(all
for
a
separate
fee
for
each
activity),
and
you
need
to
buy
a
ticket
for
the
specific
activity,
which
is
right
by
the
gift
shop.
There’s
a
neat
projector
like
activity
the
kids
can
do
by
running
their
hands
along
the
wall
and
the
wall
can
detect
the
hand
movement
and
houses/cities
and
train
tracks
will
form
along
the
path
of
where
the
hand
goes;
through
that
was
really
neat!
There
also
a
big
room
with
model
trains
running
through
places
like
Hakone
and
Odawara
all
the
way
to
Tokyo;
what’s
also
neat
is
that
the
lighting
will
go
from
day
to
night
so
you
can
see
the
scenery
change.
My
5
year
old
loves
trains
and
we’ve
already
went
to
this
museum
twice
so
far
since
we’ve
moved
to
the
area.
Neat
place
to
go
if
it’s
too
hot
or
rainy
outside.
