About

Train World invites visitors to step into a living history of Belgian railways, from the first steam locomotives to cutting‑edge high‑speed trains. The museum’s expansive collection—housing authentic locomotives, carriages, and artefacts—offers hands‑on stations where guests of all ages, especially families and school groups, can explore the mechanics and stories behind each train. A complimentary temporary exhibition, "NMBS, Company: Collaboration and Transition," further enriches the experience, especially for children up to 18. Whether you’re a seasoned train enthusiast or simply curious about Belgium’s transport legacy, Train World delivers an engaging mix of education, interactivity, and nostalgia.
