Trainspotters should hasten to view the impressive collection of decommissioned locomotives and carriages at the Museum of Railway Technology. Some 75 nicely painted and buffed engines and carriages dating back to the late 19th century are on display, as well as a mobile intercontinental nuclear missile launcher that looks like the unlikely secret weapon of a 1960s Bond villain.
This is a fantastic option for kids, though for some killjoy reason it's only possible to enter a couple of trains. There's full English signage throughout. To get here from the metro, turn right onto the canal and then right again just before you pass the former Warsaw Station (now an entertainment complex called Warsaw Express).
