Kaya Steam Locomotive Square, Railway museum in Yosano, Japan.

The Kaya Steam Locomotive Square exhibits multiple steam engines, including a Robert Stephenson-built No.2 tank from 1873 and several Japanese locomotives.

The square opened in September 1977 at the terminus of a private railway line, later relocating inland in 1996 to its current position.

The museum preserves the technical legacy of Japanese railway development through its collection of locomotives and educational presentations about steam power.

Visitors can access the museum from Friday to Monday between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with an entrance fee of 400 yen.

The facility includes a coffee shop housed within a former Tokyu EMU train car, alongside two shops offering railway memorabilia.
