In recent years, Taiwanese railway culture has been increasingly valued. The trend toward cultural preservation further inspires the public and the government to preserve traditional railway culture. In terms of technology, virtual reality (VR), a system that allows users to interact, move, watch, and get immersed in a 3D environment, is gaining ground. It has been applied successfully in a wide range of fields. These successful applications have further become popular commercial products. In this light, we apply VR technology to reconstruct Taiwanese historical sites, the nonextant historic east Taiwan railway stations, to develop a VR simulation system which provides an interactive environment for users to experience and appreciate the east Taiwan old railway stations and railway culture.
