TCDD 3rd Region Museum and Art Gallery, Railway museum in Konak district of İzmir, Turkey.

The TCDD 3rd Region Museum and Art Gallery is a railway museum located in the Konak district featuring exhibits about Turkish railway history spread across multiple floors. The collection includes artifacts, machinery, and technical equipment spanning different periods.

The building dates to the 1800s and originally served as a residence for the director of the Izmir-Aydin Railway Company during Ottoman times. It was converted into a museum in 1990.

The exhibits display original devices and tools that show how Turkish railway work changed over time. Visitors can see how people operated trains and maintained equipment in different periods.

The museum is located across from Alsancak Train Station at Atatürk Caddesi 444, making it easy to reach by public transportation. The interior is organized into specialized rooms that focus on different aspects of railway operations.

The museum houses the first two steam locomotives ever manufactured in Turkey, named Bozkurt and Karakurt. These historic engines are displayed with detailed technical documentation of their components.
