### 1/5 — ホームページで充分

*2025-02-25*

訪問予定のため事前にインストールしました。シミュレーターの値段がホームページと違う値段が表示されていました。イベントのも「時間は当日現地でご確認ください」と書いてあるが、そういう情報を集約してくれてあるアプリなんじゃないの？と疑問に思いました。入館すると位置情報でそういう情報が表示されるのかな？そうで無いならこのアプリに表示されている内容は不十分で不正確と感じるので、ホームページで充分だと思いました。この程度の内容なら抽選アプリと一緒にできないのかな？

### 5/5 — いい

*2020-01-19*

展示車両の詳細が書いてあってわかりやすい。館内マップもある。

### 5/5 — いいねぇ

*2019-08-16*

いやはや…

面白い！
毎日、鉄博に行ける訳じゃないんでいいね。

でも……

なんか足りない。(´•ω•̥`)

### 4/5 — なんか足りない。

*2019-02-11*

年間パスポートを買って、混雑具合やシュミレーター、ミニ運転列車などの待ち時間を出して欲しいです！
