A steamy history of trains and lines

Train World is a unique train experience that takes you from the very first steam locomotives to the high-speed trains! It is a world that appeals to all senses to grasp the railway in its multiple facets. A visit to Train World is a surprising and active excursion for young and old. You walk between the locomotives, you board trains that are more than a hundred years old, you visit the old level crossing guard house and you step over a real railway bridge. You can even experience the emotions when you are driving a train!
