Ome Railway Park

Ome Railway Park is an outdoor museum and theme park in Ome, Japan, displaying preserved locomotives and trains from various decades. The collection features eight steam engines, two electric cars, and the front section of a 1960s bullet train.

The park was founded in 1962 to commemorate nine decades of Japanese railways. Its oldest locomotive dates to 1871 and operated on the nation's inaugural rail line.

The collection reflects how railways shaped Japan's modernization and connected its regions over time. Visitors experience this story through the actual trains that once served daily passengers and long-distance travelers.

The park sits about 15 minutes on foot from JR Ome Station and is easy to find. Visiting hours change seasonally, so checking ahead helps you plan your visit properly.

You can step into the driver cabins of historic steam engines and actually sit in the control seat of a 1969 bullet train. This hands-on experience gives you a direct connection to the locomotives instead of just viewing them from a distance.
