Railway Musuem


Pay your R50 to the bored babushka and admire the map of the railroads over Russia – or rather, the huge section of Russia that apparently nobody lives in. There is a wonderfully large painting of Lenin arriving from exile in Finland (on the train, of course), and a wide selection of Soviet propaganda to pore over between examining models of railroads and trains. The big finale is the actual carriage from the Siberian Express that visitors can walk through.
