Former Taipei Railway Workshop
Former Taipei Railway Workshop, Railway museum in Xinyi District, Taipei, Taiwan.
The National Railway Museum occupies 17 hectares with 12 workshops, outdoor cranes, transfer platforms, offices, bathhouses, basketball courts, and an auditorium.
Established in 1935 as Taipei Railway Workshop, this facility served as Taiwan's primary train maintenance and assembly center until its relocation to Yangmei in 2012.
The museum displays Taiwan's first EMU100 electric train from 1978, along with numerous locomotives, carriages, and industrial equipment that shaped railway transportation.
The museum offers guided tours twice daily at 10:00 and 14:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays, requiring advance reservations for visitors over seven years old.
The preserved bathhouse, built in the 1930s with concrete and steel beams, received steam energy from the workshop's boilers for workers' relaxation.
