Our guide

The SCMaglev and Railway Park is JR Central's railway museum in Nagoya, opened on 14 March 2011. It displays 39 full-size railway vehicles and one bus, along with cab simulators and model railway dioramas.

Kinjō-futō Station on the Aonami Line is about 200 m away in a straight line, and LEGOLAND Japan is only about 0.7 km off, so the two make an easy pair. We have not checked opening hours or fees, so check the museum's own site before you go.
