Experience California
as it was 100 years ago
Scenic Limited Trains Start in March
Come ride the annual Scenic Limited on a leisurely 11 mile round trip through the heart of Northern California. Enjoy the rolling Montezuma Hills and views of Mt. Diablo as you travel what was once the Sacramento Northern mainline on our historic train.
Volunteers Make It All Happen
From museum and railway operations to the continuous development of our archives -- Nearly all activity at the Western Railway Museum is carried out by dedicated volunteers. You are welcome to join us! Volunteers are needed in all departments. No experience is necessary and we provide all necessary training. All you need to bring is a willingness to work with a friendly, welcoming and passionate group of people!
Museum Temporary Closure
At this time, California is under a state-wide "shelter-in-place" policy. Only activities and travel deemed "essential" are permitted. In adherance with this policy, the Western Railway Museum will remain closed until further notice.
