A while back this museum was in desperate trouble, disputes in the courts, bills not paid, equipment ownership in doubt etc.

I have visited the site and they have the only international (with Mexico) train ride that I have ever heard about.

Several interesting and old pieces of equipment including some wooden passenger cars.

Any news from them? I guess the court case brought in new management?

Ted -

Yes, we were on hard times. The recall passed - and out went the old Board, old Officers and old employees. In went an all volunteer Board and management. We are now in our 19th year of operations on the San Diego & Arizona and our 24th in Campo. We have graduated nearly 60 volunteers into trains/transit service!

Everyone is welcomed to come down and volunteer - we have openings in all areas - including train operations. Next class starts in April. Email Jim@psrm.org if interested.
