Ogo Train Yard
Your guide will meet you at the station and walk you over to the train warehouse (just 2 minutes). An old-hand train operator will explain the inner workings of the old trains in the warehouse and answer any questions you might have, while your guide interprets for you. You’ll have opportunities to enter the trains, sit in the conductor’s seat, pull the train whistle, and more. Your guide will take as many pictures of you as you’d like. There’s also a train-driving simulator, and a peddle-operated rail car that you can try for yourself.
Duration: 45 minutes
