Kyoto Railway Museum After Hours: A Magical Nighttime Adventure

[Kyoto Railway Museum] Guided Tour by Former Train Conductor & Night Museum Experience!

Join us as we explore the Kyoto Railway Museum, where we experienced a free guided tour by a former train conductor and the exclusive Night Museum, available for a limited time only! This video showcases the highlights of our visit, packed with must-see attractions for train enthusiasts.

During the guided tour, a former conductor shared fascinating insights and even demonstrated the conductor’s buzzer from the control room! We also feature the Omi Railway 100 series (formerly Seibu Railway), displayed for a limited time, and the impressive rotating steam locomotive demonstration during the Night Museum event.

Other highlights include the massive train diorama show, a ride on a steam locomotive, and a close-up look at the shinkansen driver’s seat.
