Tucked near Nairobi's railway station, this intimate museum preserves Kenya's colonial-era rail heritage through beautifully restored steam engines and period carriages that tell stories of the nation's transportation transformation. The collection includes the ornate saloon car of Kenya's first president and vintage locomotives that once connected the Indian Ocean to Lake Victoria, offering tangible connections to East African history. Knowledgeable guides enhance the experience by sharing anecdotes about the engineering feats and personalities that shaped the region's rail networks.
