We are not so enthusiastic about trains etc but got excited when looking at actual trains and maglev. Originally planned to spend one hour but stayed there for 3 hours as there are so much to see.

Excellent museum for young and old! Very clean inside and even for the youngest ones things to do - special play room with trains and tracks for them to built. It is not near - best and fastest way by train from Nagoya station (24 min).

Excellent place for those who are interested in Trains and techs. The museum features 39 full-size railway vehicles and one bus exhibit, train cab simulators, and railway model dioramas. There are 39 rolling stock displays, which include Maglev and conventional rolling stock. Three of the rolling stock on display have marked world speed records. These displays will bring back memories... More

Getting to this out of the way museum is well worth the effort as this museum is awesome. You can see and interact with how rail technology has evolved in Japan up to and including the most current mag-lev trains. You can walk inside perfectly preserved actual rolling stock shinkansen trains of the past present and future and there are... More

Only 20 minutes on the train from Nagoya Station is a very impressive display of Japanese rail from the early 20th century to the newest developments in high speed rail. Well done JR this is a great spot to visit. Spend the extra ¥500 for the audio tour, well worth it.

If you love train, then put this on your must-visit museum before you die. It has a complete collection of trains and all explanation about how train system works in Japan. Make every single yen you've spent for the entrance fee worth by visiting this museum early, put your lucky draw in the box (they will randomize the ticket number... More

I had the SCMaglev and Railway Park on my radar as soon as I heard it was opening, and went during Golden Week a few days after it opened. The result was that I had to wait in line for 90 minutes to get in, but it was well worth the wait! For a deposit, you can also borrow an... More

Due to a heavy snow in Sapporo, we had to stay 1 day in Nagoya ~_~ However, this gave us a chance to visit this Park (in our original planning, this park was closed near the year end of 2011). Anyway, the park is big and if you're a Train-lover, you won't be down! Besides, you can try a lucky... More
