I stayed near Atocha station during my three day business trip in Madrid. I looked on the map and saw this museum and knew I needed to go. It is not the most expansive railroad museum, but it was very captivating. The museum takes visitors from the early days of railways in Spain up to modern times. There is a nice restaurant in the middle that operates in a rail car, but I did not eat there. The neat caveat of this museum is that they have a small room dedicated to model railroading and engines/trains from different countries.
