The Chennai Rail Museum is a railway museum in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, which has a rich rail heritage of India.
The museum covers an area of 6.5 acres and has two galleries, a host of outdoor heritage exhibits dating from the 1800s, a toy train that takes visitors around the premises, and a playground.
The museum’s collection includes both indoor and outdoor exhibits. The indoor galleries include various photographs detailing the early years of Integral Coach Factory and the Indian Railways. The museum also houses a working scale model of trains and rare artifacts from the colonial days.
This will be where new exhibits, planned for the museum’s second decade, will be located. There is also an opportunity to view a video about Neal’s ball token system, which was used for signalling between trains and a coach in which Gandhi travelled.
there are more than 40 different models of trains. An 1895 model of the Fowler steam ploughing engine made by John Fowler for agricultural purposes and 1860s Double Decker coaches are some of the recognizable coaches displayed in the museum. The models also include Coaches of Inspection car RA 30 made by Metropolitan Carriage and Finance Co. Ltd., Crane Hercules (used for emergency relief) and luxury trains coaches. Almost all coaches in the museum are accessible to visitors.
