Nairobi Railway Museum

About Us

Kenya Railways represents the historical growth of this country and Nairobi Railway Museum narrates the tale of this country’s evolvement; indeed it is the rail that developed Kenya to the country it is now!

The Nairobi Railway Museum was opened in 1971, and much of the credit for its foundation goes to the first Curator, Mr. Fred Jordan, who had been with the railways in East Africa from 1927. Realising the speed at which changes were taking place within the railway system he saw the need to preserve as many links with the past as possible. He began to gather items which were to form the nucleus of the present day museum’s fascinating and growing collection. Nairobi Railway Museum is owned by Kenya Railways and is the only Railway Museum in East and Central Africa.

For the kids that love trains and are fascinated by machines, this will be a paradise for them. Additionally, there's a mini train that gives a delightful ride within the yard for the young ones. You need to book and arrange a ride befoe hand (including weekends & public holidays).
