Train triumphantly arrives in Tomsk on August 13th
The "Train of Victory" World War II exhibition is set to roll into Tomsk-1 railway station on August 13 and stay until August 14. This unique exhibition, which has already been visited by over 1.3 million people in Russia, Belarus, and Abkhazia, offers a captivating look into key events of the war.
For those unable to attend the physical exhibition, the "Train of Victory" project provides an online 3D tour as an alternative. The online tour is available on the project's website, offering a virtual journey through the thematic carriages dedicated to frontline life, the home front's contribution, the role of science and medicine, and military tribunals.
During the two-day exhibition in Tomsk, visitors will be guided by an audio guide available through a mobile app. Children under 12 years old must be accompanied by adults during the exhibition.
Entry to the exhibition is free, but prior registration is required one day before the train's arrival. Registration can be done through the project's website or by contacting the organisers directly.
While there is no specific information available about an immersive mobile exhibition on World War II events, there are several other exhibitions and events related to the war that might be of interest. For instance, the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force in Georgia is planning a new exhibition focusing on POW experiences and Escape & Evasion accounts, which is set to debut in late 2026 or early 2027. The National WWII Museum in New Orleans offers a comprehensive look at the American experience in World War II, including personal stories from veterans and immersive experiences like the "Mission Experience" theater presentation. The Idaho State Historical Society also has various exhibits related to the war.
