Modern Transportation Museum

This was a great museum located in Osaka. It wass directly below the Osaka Loop Line at Bentencho (Also a stop on the Chuo Subway Line). It closed several years ago, with most of the collection moving to the Kyoto Railway Museum. I found it interesting that they had some American prototypes on display including a SF Cable Car and an old Steam Locomotive.
