The museum is best place to the kids to know about our Indian Railways start from the scratch till date growth and it's development and commitment towards the service for the civilians. It was good self-explanatory pictorial representation and photos and replicas of coaches. It has refreshment area, neat and clean restrooms, play area for kids, train ride and good car and two wheeler parking.
Entry fees for adults 50 & children's 25. Free entry for kids below 3 yrs. It was great experience. All Monday's are holiday.

Have been planning to visit this place for a pretty long time, after hearing a lot about it.

Entrance fee for adults is 50 and for kids it is 25, entrance fee also includes 10 rupees worth refreshments at food court, which can be encashed for tea, samosa or tea cake.

This place is a must for art enthusiasts surprisingly, as there are many sculptures on display, which are made from waste out of train manufacturing!

For kids, there’s plenty to see, read and learn about trains, half a day can be spent here, if want to read the stuff mentioned there leisurely. Otherwise 1-2 hours is enough.

Must not Miss - Entrance fee also includes mini train ride of 2 rounds inside, which will give a feel like journey inside a forest, as there are many trees inside and nice breeze flows around.

There’s another place inside, wherein toy train demo is shown, which kids will love! ❤️

Only reason for four stars is restroom, which was not clean and there was no water coming in the tap, which is something management can address easily.

Well maintained museum... Truly an informative and entertaining for both adults and kids... Parking area is spacious for both two and four wheelers. Ticket price for adults is 50rs. And kids above 3 years is 25rs.
They'll give you a complimentary tea and biscuits per head for free in the food court. All we need to do is keep our tickets safely.

There is a toy train available which is a true entertainer for kids.

Slides and swings are well maintained inside the park.

Students can gather more information about evolution of Indian railways.

Pollution free area and to cover the entire museum it will not take more than 2hrs.
