Traveler highlights

Near Mojiko Station, the Kyushu Railway History Museum opened in 2003 in a former Kyushu Railway headquarters building, registered as a tangible cultural property in 2014. Displays include tracks, tickets, railway meals, uniforms and trains, while the outdoor yard lets visitors see vehicles that once ran in Kyushu. Steam locomotives, sleeping cars and an early electric train designed in 1942 show different eras of rail travel. The museum also has Japan’s first miniature railway park at a railway museum and a train-driving simulator.
