The Tokyo Metro Museum is a railway museum located in Edogawa Ward in Tokyo, Japan. The museum is owned by the Metro Cultural Foundation, a non-profit organization of the Tokyo Metro.[1] It is located a short 100 meters from Kasai Station.[2]

Visitors enter the museum through a subway ticket gate, leading to a section of Tokyo’s first underground line between Ueno and Asakusa that opened in 1927 (now a part of the Ginza Line).[3]
