THE RAILWAY MUSEUM

The next step is in the 'Stazione' where it can be revived the same atmosphere of a station at the end of the nineteenth century with the telegraphs for the communication along the way and the typical furnishings with timetables, stamps, registers and the complaints' book.
Then there is the Museum's most appreciated sector where the historical rolling stock is displayed. Two beautiful historical steam engines (Winterthur no.43 "Goito" of 1893, Reggiane no.400 of 1931) and the two Bauchiero carriages of 1913 are elegantly displayed in large halls whose walls are decorated with old original engine drawings and projects (in the Sardinian secondary raiway history up to the 1930's appeared seven different types of steam engines) and with peculiar pieces from these same engines (steam sand spreader, tachograph, and others).
The individual sections of the Museum open fanwise to the railway square and the public way through a rotating platform: in this way many tourist trips can leave from here using this site as a station.
Inside the Museum there is also a bookshop where can be buyed railway's gifts such as books, videos and different items for collectors.
