An air-conditioning apparatus includes a casing to store a device included in the air-conditioning apparatus, and an access door pivotably supported by the casing via a hinge so as to be pulled downward of the casing to allow access from inside a compartment of the railway vehicle to the device in the casing. A control device to control the air-conditioning apparatus and an inverter device to supply an operational electric current to the air-conditioning apparatus are mounted on a surface of the access door on a side facing an interior space of the casing. Main circuit wiring for supply of power and control wiring for sending and receiving of a control signal are disposed apart from each other, with the access door between the main circuit wiring and the control wiring.
