On the other hand, there are a number of people who have bothered to go to see what is there; it is the National Rail Museum. Inaugurated on the 1st of Feb, 1977, this museum is now more than 30 years old, and is an ideal place to view the history of Rail in India, with the different kinds of engines and locomotives used over the years. You also get to see many of the historic trains of India.
The museum is located on an area of 10 acres, and has an indoor gallery containing models, records, coat of arms (from imperial times), photographs, documents, etc. The museum provides visitors with a journey into the Railway history and heritage and show the role of the Railways into the economic progress of the country.
Children can enjoy a ride on the miniature rail track in the Museum.

National Science Center Museum, Bhairon Road

Delhi does not have too many places where you can inculcate the scientific spirit among children. And if you tell children that you are taking them to a museum, a lot of children are not particularly enthusiastic about the prospect of going there. But take them to the National Science Center Museum on Bhairon Road, near the Gate # 1 of Pragati Maidan, and you might find them getting interested.
A map of the location (a satellite picture) can be seen at this URL.
The National Science Center Museum was setup in order to further the interest of students and children in the field of science, and it is very different from a Government run place; there are interesting exhibits, various theories and laws of science are displayed through the exhibits (and some of them are very visually attractive and appealing), and there are live demonstrations that make things easy to understand. Some of the more important exhibits are in the area of space, Human Biology, Dinosaur's Gallery, Indian contributions in the field of science and mathematics, and the planetarium.
Many times, you can see buses bringing school children in groups to the museum. The museum is open 10 AM - 9 PM on all days, except Mondays when it is closed.
