The long-awaited Shanghai Railway Museum opened on the weekend with an exhibition of rare locomotives. Train lovers were treated to a display of more than 1,000 items, a reminder of the history of rail and the importance railways still have in China. Two of the star attractions at the museum, which is located in a 90-year-old railway station, are two locomotives and a carriage that experts believe date back to the 1920s and 1940s respectively. Also on display are tracks built in the 1890s, railway workers' uniforms from different eras, signaling and telecommunication equipment. Shanghai's Railway Administration spent seven years and over 20 million yuan or 2.4 million US dollars on the museum. |
