2023 Online Auction and BBQ Dinner
Last year's auction funds went to getting the Southern Pacific Railroad box car exterior finished and moved over to the museum's display track. A big thank you to all who participated.
Join in the fun this year to raise funds for getting construction started on this SP box car's interior exhibits and ADA access. This will get us ever closer to creating "The People of the Southern Pacific Railroad, Central Coast" exhibit which will honor the men and women of the SPRR who worked here on the Central Coast, especially those who gave their lives working on the railroad.
