👍 間近で迫力あるSLを見られて感動。下今市駅の構内にSL関連の展示室と実際の転車台があり、改札を出る事なく行けます。一般のホームからは若干離れており階段の上り下りもあるので乗り換え時間を利用して見に行く場合は注意が必要ですが、3、40分くらいあれば展示室含めゆっくり楽しめるのではないかと思います。ただし当然...

👍👍 When I say "museum", I felt that the name was a little out of place, but I found a wonderful person among the female staff here.

Nakagawa Clear Stream Railway Preservation Society
Rail museum
👍👍 4歳の息子はなぜかディーゼル機関車好き。多くの機関車に自由に触れられる展示に大興奮で3時間以上の滞在になりました。実動する本物が多いので、保護者がきちんと監視していないと危ない所やベタベタに汚れる所はあるので注意は必要ですが、ディズニーシー等のテーマパークよりはるかに楽しそうでした。ミニ新幹線に乗れた...
