Display of Belgian steam locomotives in Train World

Train World is a railway museum in Belgium and the official museum of the National Railway Company of Belgium. It is situated in the former buildings of Schaarbeek railway station. Although scheduled to open in 2014, its opening was delayed until September 2015.[1][2]

The museum is over 8,000 square metres (86,000 sq ft) and displays 22 locomotives. It also displays 1,200 other object, including an original 19th century railway bridge. One of the most important objects in the museum is the "Pays de Waes" locomotive, dating to 1842, which is the oldest preserved locomotive in Continental Europe.[3]
