Yokohama City Air Terminal (YCAT)
As you know, the Bay Bridge provides a beautiful view when heading towards Yokohama from Haneda. The vast panorama that makes you feel like you're flying over the ocean will add to the excitement of your trip. If you sit in the seat on the right side, you will get a panoramic view of Minato Mirai, and you will definitely feel that you have arrived in Yokohama.The Keikyu Group museum, which is familiar to train and bus fans, has opened on the north side of the Minato Mirai area, about a 5-minute walk from Yokohama Sta.. There are many buildings of well-known companies lined up in the surrounding area, and the first floor of each building is an area that serves as a museum for each company. Among them, let's go to the Keikyu Museum, which is currently attracting attention!
Keikyu Group
The Keikyu Group is a corporate group centered on Keikyu Corporation, which is famous for its "red train." Our main business areas are from Shinagawa to Haneda Airport, Kawasaki, Yokohama, and Miura Peninsula, and we are engaged in transportation, real estate, leisure, service, and distribution businesses.-
The first thing you see when you enter the museum is the ``Keikyu History'' corner, which displays a large red train. On display is a vehicle called Deha No. 236, which was built in 1929 and retired in 1978. The platform has also been recreated to look like it was back then, giving the impression that the train is about to depart at any moment. Capture memorable photos in front of the vehicle or from the platform. Please enjoy the authentic size and texture that gives you a sense of history.
-
When you enter the train from the platform, half of the interior remains as it was back then, and you can even sit on the seats. What you can see from the window is a platform with a nostalgic atmosphere. You can see the buildings of Minato Mirai in the background, giving it a slightly strange feeling. There are glass cases lined up at the back of the train, displaying old maps, tickets, and booklets. When you look around you, you'll see advertisements from the past hanging inside the car. You can experience the old days of Keikyu Railway in a retro atmosphere.
-
As you look down from inside the Keikyu History train car, you'll see an elaborate 12-meter-long diorama recreating the area along the Keikyu Line. Not only the topography, plants, and shape of buildings, but also the shops and factories in front of the station are realistically reproduced. It seems that he is particular about even the way people move. First of all, the area around Yokohama Sta. is worth noting. It is made to look exactly like the Keikyu Group headquarters or a nearby department store, and the finish is sure to put a smile on your face. Please take a look at it to your heart's content.
-
For 100 yen per ride, you can drive through the diorama as if you were a driver. An ultra-compact camera is installed at the front of each vehicle, allowing you to drive a model train using a real driver's cab. You can drive and stop as you wish, and the monitor will show you what's going on along the Keikyu lines. You are sure to be impressed by the precision of the diorama, which is so accurate that it can be mistaken for a real scenery.
-
A network of bus routes connects Yokohama City and its surrounding towns. This is an attraction where the most representative routes are displayed on a monitor, allowing you to experience the feeling of driving from a real-life driver's seat. The equipment of a real route bus is almost completely reproduced, so even the fare boxes and switches used for announcements are realistically reproduced. Come and experience the scenery that bus drivers always see, from the windshield to the peripheral equipment.
-
When I looked down, I saw a lot of stop buttons. The Keikyu Museum staff installed many stop buttons, knowing that you usually can't press them to get to your destination bus stop. You can press it any time and as many times as you like. This is a great attraction for families with children.
The driving simulator that makes your wish of driving a train come true is a driving simulator equipped with the cab of a real new 1000-series train. Drive while being lectured on how to use switches and levers! The outside scenery linked to your driving movements is just like the real thing. Feel like a driver and try driving a train.

In addition to the ones introduced here, we found other cute photo spots outside the building! As you walk towards Sakuragicho from the museum's entrance, you will find a cute chair with a deformed version of the Keikyu Railway in the adjacent green area. It's sure to look great in photos.Address: 1-2-8 Takashima, Nishi-ku, Yokohama, Keikyu Group Headquarters, 1st floor
