Railway Museum

Approx. Time: 2 hours
Activity Level: Easiest

The Railway Museum is on Station Rd. near the Haile Selassie Ave roundabout. It is located next to the railway station. Among the exhibits are a number of the old steam trains. Perhaps the most interesting is the carriage from which a man eating lion dragged a victim as the line was being constructed through what is now Tsavo National Park . There is also a model of MV Liemba, the vessel built by the Germans and which still plies up and down Lake Tanganyika.

The museum does not only exhibit replicas of old steam engines, but also a lot of material showing the history of Kenya. It is open from 8 am to 4:45 pm and costs about KSh 50 to enter.
