Hello! Thank you so much for consistently watching our videos. In this episode, we had the incredible opportunity to explore the Railway Museum in Omiya, Saitama, often regarded as Japan's premier railway museum. As expected from the nation's top railway museum, the experience was rich and diverse, featuring attractions like the SL Simulator, conductor experiences, the breathtaking rotation of the steam locomotive turntable, and a delightful lunch in the dining car. The museum is so extensive that a single day might not be enough to cover everything. While entrance tickets are available on-site, you can save on costs by purchasing advance tickets, taking advantage of group discounts (for 20 or more people), or exploring well-known ticket shops and online marketplaces. For specific experiences like the SL Simulator, an exclusive app is used for a lottery system, and participating in the lottery is essential as slots fill up quickly, even on weekdays. The 205 series, 211 series, and E233 series simulators are available on a first-come, first-served basis on weekdays. Our adventure also includes exploring the expansive diorama, reviewing the museum shop, witnessing the coupling demonstration of the 200 series Shinkansen, capturing the essence of the first-generation Shinkansen, and observing passing Shinkansen trains. We plan to showcase other railway museums in Japan that haven't been featured yet, so stay tuned for more exciting content.
