Now there used to be a narrow gauge locomotive that was built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition displayed in the front lobby, but I think it's since been sold or sent off to be restored as a working locomotive and they've replaced it with this guy.

Nah not nearly that much. Only a few of the pre 1910s stuff from certain railroads do.

Rock Island, MKT, Rio Grande and UP are my mainstays, but I have an SP cup and saucer and a pair of New Haven plates along with 3 NY Central plates. In my opinion I think the prettiest was probably the service plate used on Pennsy's 1938 Broadway Limited followed by the grey Mercury pattern used on New York Central's Mercury and then the Rock Island's green sage pattern. The hardest to find or expensive I've seen are the Milwaukee Road's Hiawatha pattern along with ATSF's Turquoise room and anything from a line that went out of business before the 1920s like Colorado Midland or some of the old patterns of any road pre 1920. Also, some business cars were equipped with exclusive patterns, like Rock Island had a business car service plate that complimented their sage green pattern that has big red heart in the center with a gold leaf "RI" monogrammed on it.

CSRMbirthday anon, I hope I'm not stepping on your toes by posting my shit.

Here's my UP collection. The plate that started my entire search and purchasing "craze" for railroad china is in the back left. I found it one day at an antique store with my ex-gf for $20 and jewed her down to $15. This is Union Pacific's most common and last iteration of china they had manufactured for them. Called the 'Streamliner' pattern, you can see they modelled the train in the center after the UP M-10003-M-10006 trainsets from 1936. They still made it into the early 80s for their business train, so it's by far the most common which is why I found it in BFE of Texas' hat. In fact I think all but 1 piece I found in the wild, not on feebay. A lot of my collection is "well worn". I like to find those so that I can use them daily. The coffee cup and saucer is on my every-other-day morning coffee cup rotation.

And then the backside of two of them. The Syracuse round plate is "backstamped" with 'UNION PACIFIC RR'. This one is from January 1955, but the Trenton oval plate is from the late 60s. Trenton was the second to last supplier of this pattern and did so until UP sold their passenger routes to Amtrak in 1972. Homer Laughlin made orders after that until the 80s for the business car fleet. UP had several other, less common patterns of which I have yet to see in the wild for a good price.

Now, I was running a little short on time so I kinda rushed through the top floor (the model trains section), but I still managed to get some decent photos.

This train is a lot like Justin Trudeau and a turtle on a post

You know it didn't get there by itself
It doesn't belong up there
It has no idea what to do now that it's there
You wonder who have thought it was a good idea in the first place
It's elevated beyond its ability to function

A whole room full of model trains on display.

They had it either on display in the open air shed or moved to the locomotive works for maintenance I think.

The Warbonnet however was open for public display in front of the roundhouse.

Found some pics of the F40PH from a visit in May, 2022 when it was on outdoor display.

Very nice, OP. I haven't been to the CSRRM since I was a child. even though I could've recently gone with free admission as a foundation member when I was a volunteer at Railtown. Fucked off from California tho.

I hope one day they get more than 3 miles to run their shit on in Sac.

B&O is definitely worth it

Literally the only reason to go to California. The CSRRM is baste. I havent been in a long time. It really is one of my favorite places. Id sit next to 4294 and just listen to the recordings of the air pumps and whistle.

Not an insult anyway, in my book. I'm happy OP spent the day in a way he enjoyed, is able share it with likeminded folk and I find the experience somewhat interesting as well.

Socal railway museum (formerly Orange Empire) is older, and better.

Most of CSRRMs cars are just cosmetically restored, whereas most of Socal's collection is mechanically restored.

Oh dang, I never got down there. Was always too far

I've never been either, i'm just in the rail museum business and know of it by reputation.

A simple google search of "Assyrian National Broadcasting" would've rendered this post unnecessary, but you chose to post it anyway.

Alright, I'm gonna have to go here now. I don't really have any reason to go up north, but I've been wanting to see this museum. I was just worried it would have been like the Southern California museum down here which is fine, but is mostly just miscellaneous old rolling stock and a few random switchers

You're thinking of Overfair Railway No. 15, IIRC was donated to the Swanton Pacific Railroad at Cal Poly shortly before it was the badly damaged in a fire and the University closed the railroad permanently. Now it's going to be moved to Santa Clarita I believe.

You can get a decent entry level mirrorless camera for like 500-600. Probably cheaper if you get one "discontinued" like a Sony a6000. A mirrorless gives you the DSLR experience but for a bit less money and without having to carry around something as big as a brick.

you can get a phone that was absolute cutting edge 2 years ago for $500 and it's more likely to be with you 100% of the time and in most cases do a good enough job (in some cases worse in some cases actually better)

pic here was taken at night with my midrange phone from 2 years ago, I have no idea what I'm doing I just pointed and pressed the button. there's far better stuff out there but surely you're not going to say this fairly mediocre phone hardware isn't 'good enough' for almost any reasonable use case

I'll be visiting family there in May; think i'll go and visit it then!
