| Description | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: The museum also has approximately 100 historic railroad cars and locomotives on display, including five steam locomotives, seventeen diesel locomotives and many other pieces of rolling stock. A large display building houses part of the railroad equipment collection which allows visitors to view or walk through the equipment. A new donation has been received for an exhibit titled "Signal Science" which uses retired railroad signals to demonstrate how railway signals work. The museum is also home to the Southwest Railway Library, which opened in Campo on July 2014. The library contains the second largest collection of railroad history in California. Round trip train ride on the historic San Diego & Arizona Railway The Golden State is the Museum’s classic weekend excursion that has been in operation since 1986. You will depart from the Campo Depot for the approximately 45-minute ride after visiting the Museum’s gift shop and ticket office. Passengers aboard the Golden State enjoy the rugged back-country scenery of San Diego County as the train travels toward the Mexican border. The train then returns to Campo where passengers may detrain at either the Museum’s equipment display grounds or back at the Campo Depot. The Golden State is also available for the general public and weekday group charters on selected Tuesdays. A minimum passenger count is required for these weekday trips and advance reservations ARE required. Want to ride in the cab of the locomotive? Cab rides are available during our regularly scheduled Golden State trains. For more information, please visit the LOCOMOTIVE CAB RIDES page. |
