Place : The Railway Museum (https://www.railway-museum.jp/e/)

The Railway Museum opened in October 2007 in Omiya, Saitama City as the centerpiece of the JR East 20th Anniversary Memorial Project. The museum opened the new south building in July 2018, and the main building was fully renovated as well. The museum now consists of 5 different stations, the Rolling Stock Station, Science Station, Job Station, Future Station, and the History Station. With the renovation, the museum was reborn as a hands-on museum telling the story of the relationship between people and railways using various themes.
