Regional Railway Museum, Chennai
The Regional Railway Museum is a railway museum in Chennai, India. The museum was founded in 2002 on the premises of the Integral Coach Factory at Perambur,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=location )〕 near South Colony near Villivakkam. It is situated near ICF bus terminus and has a host of both technical and heritage exhibits. It has a sizable collection of steam engines belonging to various decades of the British Raj. The museum also exhibits various vintage coaches such as Ooty trains endemic to the Indian railways. Most of the older models were manufactured by the North British Locomotive Company〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Meter gauge Diesel locomotive, Western Railway. )〕 and some of the collection dates back more than one hundred years as it covers the railway history of South India. The museum is maintained by the Integral Coach Factory.
==Development==
The museum was started to showcase the heritage of the Indian Railways. Work began for it in 2001 and the museum was inaugurated in March 2002 by then Railway Minister Nitish Kumar. Several additions have been made since then. The museum recently constructed a joy ride for children to teach them about the history of trains. Close to 5,500 people visit the museum every month, comprising mostly students and locals,〔 but the railway struggles from a lack of awareness and publicity despite people's connection and the role of the railway in India's growth.〔 While celebrating the museum's 10th anniversary in 2012, the museum announced plans for future growth.
