About Us
Almost every aspect of the Museum, from Conductors, to Motorman, to restoration specialists, to archivists, events, and museum store operations, is run by volunteers.
Be it once per week, once per month, in one of our well-established departments, or just during special events like the Pumpkin Patch each October, or the Scenic Limited trains each April, or the Santa Trains in December, we need your help!
It doesn’t matter if you have special skills and experience or not, we provide all the necessary training. All you need is a willingness to learn, some spare time, and an interest in supporting the Museum’s mission to preserve the regional heritage of electric railway transportation. Come aboard and be a part of California history!
