CloudBuilt @ Train World Brussels

Schaerbeek station is situated in the middle of the Belgian railway network. Based in the heart of Europe, it lies on the route of Belgium's very first railway track, between Brussels and Mechelen. It is a true gem in Belgian railway architecture. The railway garden connects it with a new industrial hangar.Together with this new museum complex in the form of a sawtooth shape, the Schaerbeek station represents a wonderful symbiosis of old and new in the Art Nouveau heart of Schaerbeek.

Just like the station building, the new hall is connected to the city. Through the glass window you can already catch a glimpse of Le Belge, the first locomotive to be built in Belgium. Inside, from the bridge and mezzanine, there's a wonderful view to be enjoyed over both the city and the tracks.

It is said that history repeats itself. However, in the world of trains, nothing could be further from the truth. Travel constantly takes on another dimension, depending on the needs at the time.
End your visit in a first class armchair in a high speed train and get a feel for the future of trains. Three life-sized noses of modern locomotives, designed by Siemens, Alstom and Bombardier, complete the visit to the museum of Train World.
