California State Railroad Museum: Walkthrough ~ Steam Locomotives & Model Train Exhibits (Pt. 2)

I pick up right where The Guided Tour ended. Railfans, get ready to immerse yourself in the golden age of railroading at the California State Railroad Museum! 🚂 Stand face-to-face with the legendary *Commissioners’ Car No. 1*, a witness to the historic Transcontinental Railroad ceremony in 1869. Marvel at the sheer power of Southern Pacific No. 4294, the last surviving Cab Forward locomotive—a true giant of the rails—and Union Pacific No. 4466, a hardworking steam engine that once ruled the freight lines. Dive into the stunning Thomas W. Sefton Gallery, home to over 3,300 square feet of beautifully preserved model trains, including Lionel, Märklin, and Buddy L treasures. This museum is a railfan’s paradise, packed with history, engineering marvels, and incredible stories! 00:00 CSRM Part 2 00:18 4294 1:11 Virginia & Truckee No. 13 Empire 2:16 RPO 42 Mail Car 5:54 Union Pacific 4466 6:48 Virginia & Truckee Railroad No. 12 Genoa 7:29 1929 Canadian Pullman Type Sleeper Car 11:30 Diner Car 13:13 Georgia Northern The Gold Coast 14:47 exhibits 15:51 Golden Spike Replica 16:47 Small Wonders - Model Train Collection 21:32 Large Scale 21:45 S Scale 22:00 O Scale 22:13 N Scale 22:23 HO Scale 22:30 Nevada Short Line 24:24 Scale Model - The Vault 26:33 Model Car Examples 27:36 Model Examples Part 2 28:50 In Museum 29:28 Turn Table 30:04 Closer Look at 4466 30:48 4294 Cab 32:08 The Commissioner's Car 33:33 Exhibits 34:22 Standard Gauge 34:31 Exhibits Exit & Overview 38:06 Exit Comments Direct link to Part 1 at the California State Railroad Museum:    • Trains, Immigrants & American Identity | C...   #railroad #train #railfan #railroad museum
