About
This Nagoya museum showcases JR Central's railway heritage — from the original 0 Series Shinkansen to the 603 km/h maglev test vehicle. The massive HO-gauge diorama of the Tokaido line is mesmerizing.
Crowd Avoidance
Start early morning for the best experience and fewer people. Autumn foliage and cherry blossom seasons are the most crowded periods.
