The museum
features various materials and items like artifacts and vehicles from the over
100 years of railroad history in Korea, which started with the first miracle
on September 18, 1899. The first floor houses a history hall and an exhibit
devoted to items from railroad vehicles. The second floor focuses on electronics,
communications, facilities and architecture, and items related to the transportation
industry. The first floor also has a Railroad Model Panorama Room, which features
replicas of the various trains that have traversed the Korean countryside, right
from the first steam engine until the KTX. There's also an outdoor exhibit area
featuring a real steam engine train, a presidential train, as well as passenger
and cargo trains. The presidential train was introduced in May of 2015 for guests
to enjoy.
