The North Railway Station is also a museum that is currently opened at the station in operation in my country. The locomotive hall is the South Hall. The old-fashioned railway tracks and trains such as inch gauge and meter gauge are displayed in the museum, as well as modern standard gauge and EMU series trains, among which the steam locomotive with meter gauge, No. 29 steam locomotive with a gauge of only 60 cm, The exhibits such as "Michelin" diesel trains are very representative, representing the development and change of railway culture from generation to generation. The most eye-catching thing in the pavilion is the wooden train parked on the inch-gauge track. The carriages, seats, and floors are all made of wood, like a huge wooden house that can be moved, subverting the image of the train in the public's mind. The North Hall (Comprehensive Hall) displays a large number of historical photos of trains and rails, blueprints of the vertical section of the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway and other historical materials, which can systematically understand the development of Yunnan Railway.
