Railway Museum - Brianna

My favorite part of the Railway Museum was the World 3 dark ride. That was certainly the most unique exhibit I’ve ever seen in a museum (and I definitely rode it more than once). But one thing that surprised me was the royal class waiting room. I’m glad that someone pointed out the change in “rich people” design over the years. Nowadays, neutral colored minimalist decor is the preferred style. Back in the day, richly colored and patterned decor was preferred. I’m curious about which factors affect change in decor style, and how that style will change as we move into the future.

That ride was a blast. It’s also interesting seeing what we aesthetic we use to show off wealth. Something I’ve noticed with style is trends always cycle coming in and out, so it will be interesting seeing when this old extravagant style will return.

That ride was most definitely fun (definitely not expecting that little drop during the ride). I found it surprising how the design for wealthy people changes over time

That is very interesting. I also went through this exhibit, but I dont think that I saw this detail. It is very cool to learn about it from you!

I also thought the ride was really fun. It was cool to see how the museum really incorporated interactive things to keep people engaged and actively learning. I didn’t even think to compare the royal car to something we might see today. I’m also curious what caused the evolution of the styles we saw.
