Fukuchiyama Poppoland Railway Museum

Fukuchiyama Poppoland Railway Museum is a railway museum in Fukuchiyama with collections of locomotives, carriages, destination boards, and uniforms. The exhibits document how regional rail transportation developed and changed over time.

The museum was established in 1998 to preserve the railway heritage of the region and document the story of train transportation. A notable exhibit features a historic steam locomotive that once operated in the area.

The museum shows how trains changed in Japan through small-scale models and displays of different train types that people used over time. Visitors can see how these machines became part of daily life in the region.

The museum spans two buildings located within walking distance of each other. Plan to spend a few hours exploring both structures, and wear comfortable shoes as you move between the exhibition spaces.

The entrance features a wooden-framed ticket office designed to replicate a 1950s railway station. This authentic setting immediately immerses visitors in the historical railway experience from that era.
