Over the past five years Taiwan Railways has increased its production of souvenirs and collectables. These items are the work of two young women who hope to make the railways a part of everyday life.
There is this toy train that encircles a map of Taiwan.
And a handheld vacuum cleaner that looks a lot like a train engine. These items are popular among workers and train enthusiasts.
Train Enthusiasts
There are many things that attract me. Actually, if my home was big enough, I would buy all of these items for my collection.
There are also children’s eating utensils and Puyuma Express train socks. The source of these creative, Taiwan Railways-inspired goods is a pair of young women named Shih Wen-tong and Lee Chih-ting.
Lee Chih-ting
Product Designer
When a child is eating something and uses this utensil, he or she will think about having taken the train and will keep thinking about Taiwan Railways. I think the railways should become a part of a child’s life from a young age.
The work of these two designers contributes about NT$10 million in annual revenues to the century-old railway system.
