Great view of the Sierra Railway roundhouse @Railtown1897, one of only two continuously operating roundhouses in the nation! Seen a #STEAM locomotive in a movie? It is probably here at this amazing @CAStateParks! @CSRM_Foundation #railroad #findyourpark #visitourparks #STEM

Happy Fall! @Railtown1897 is always a scenic gem, but we think it’s the prettiest in the fall. This photo is from October 2019, but we’re anxiously waiting for the trees to look like this again. Cooler temps wouldn’t hurt either!

The Foundation is sad to announce the passing of Dr. Denny Anspach, M.D. Dr. Anspach was the primary proponent and visionary behind the creation of the California State Railroad Museum. Full statement can be found on our website: CaliforniaRailroad.museum
