Three Express Trains Museum

Three Express Trains Museum is Shenzhen’s first railway-themed museum, featuring historical photographs, cargo manifests, and authentic railway artifacts.

Its name pays homage to the three express trains that began operating daily from March 20, 1962. The three trains departed from Wuhan, Zhengzhou, Shanghai, or Changsha, ferrying fresh goods to Hong Kong via Shenzhen.
