The Museum for Railway Technology Novosibirsk (Russian: Новосибирский музей железнодорожной техники, Nowosibirski musei schelesnodoroschnoi techniki) is a railway museum in Novosibirsk. It was formally opened in 2000 near to Sejatel railway station (станцией Сеятель), at the Novosibirsk–Berdsk line and is the second largest transport museum in Russia after the Central Railway Museum in St Petersburg.

History

Nikolai Akulinin was the founder of the museum. He worked from 1946 to 1955 at the North Caucasus Railway and since 1955 at various railway in Siberia. After getting retired in 1984, he started to work on the collection of the museum for several years, storing the relevant exhibits on the circular track of the All-Russian Railway Research Institute. In 1998 the West Siberian Railway endorsed the establishment of a museum. Preparatory work lasted until 2000, when the museum was formally inaugurated on 4 August 2000 during the celebrations of the Railway Day. Contrary to his wish, it was named after Nikolai Akulininas, who was also its first director.[1]
