New Delhi : Minister of Railways and Coal, Shri Piyush Goyal has launched “Rail Heritage Digitisation Project” of Indian Railways in collaboration with Google Arts & Culture here today through video-conferencing. The project can be accessed through link: “https://artsandculture.google.com/project/indian-railways”. The project is a landmark effort, first of its kind in this part of the globe, to showcase country’s Rail Heritage to National and International audience in an online story-telling platform.

That heritage underpins the National Railway Museum’s unique collection.

Looking to the future, we have a bold and ambitious plan to invest £50 million to completely transform the museum. This investment will bring the epic story of railways past, present and future alive and open up our world-class collection for even more people to enjoy—and this is your chance to offer your support and feedback on the proposals.
