Japan Railway Journal S2021E05 - Back in Time at the Romancecar Museum

In April 2021, Odakyu Electric Railway opened its Romancecar Museum. The museum features 5 generations of Romancecars, including the 3000 SE series, which set the world record for the fastest narrow-gauge speed (145km/h) in 1957 (a significant step toward developing the first Series 0 Shinkansen). Join us as we look at the highlights of the new museum and how Romancecars laid the foundation for Japan's limited express trains.
