We went to Train world not being sure how interesting the museum would be and thought we will be out in an hour, however surprisingly we spent around 2 good hours exploring the museum. Lot of good info and to scale models to see. Also the real locomotives and carriages are undoubtedly the stars. Just wish more locomotives and carriages were available to be explored from the inside. However quite a good time to kill nonetheless!

Benefit from a free downloadable Train World app to help you make the most of your visit. Once inside the museum, explore independently and see highlights such as the 19th-century "Pays de Waes" locomotive, the oldest preserved locomotive in continental Europe.

Temporary exhibition Draw me a train! from September 19, 2024 to August 31, 2025
Draw me a train!
Throughout history, travel - and trains in particular - have been a source of inspiration for artists. With the exhibition Draw me a train!, we invite you to explore the railway world, as imagined by talented designers. This exhibition delves into the work of thirteen renowned artists - comic strip authors, architects, painters, poster artists, sculptors and designers - who have captured the beauty of trains and the railway universe through their art. An exhibition that invites you to draw during your visit, you’ll also have the opportunity to unleash your own creativity by drawing some of our most beautiful trains, as well as remarkable or unusual objects from SNCB’s historical collections.
Enjoy your visit!

Head to the on-site restaurant Filou'Sophe when you need a break or to enjoy lunch before or after your visit. Experience the warm hospitality in a unique setting and dine in a unique environment.

We used the parking next to the museum. We paid FULL amount for 4 hours = 10.56 EUROS. Museum visitors only pay a maximum of 3.90 Euros for the first 4 hours. The museum did not inform us about this. We left at 15h30, we could not go back to the museum for information and make a claim. Disappointing.
