About

A compact railway heritage gallery inside Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, showcasing the history of India's railways and the Victorian Gothic terminus itself, completed in 1888. Exhibits include vintage signalling equipment, model trains and photographs tracing the evolution of Indian Railways from the 1850s onward. The gallery sits within a fully operational, UNESCO World Heritage-listed train station still serving millions of commuters daily. It offers a focused counterpart to the larger National Rail Museum in Delhi.

Did you know? CST (formerly Victoria Terminus) took 10 years to build and remains one of the busiest railway stations in the world, its heritage gallery preserves artefacts from the original 1853 line, the first passenger railway ever run in Asia.
