Have you been to the Southern California Railway Museum in Riverside County? (aka Orange Empire Railway Museum-the museum board got tired of people thinking we were in Orange County because of the name and changed it a few years ago).
Doesn't have the beautiful indoor dioramas etc, but we operate streetcars and trains on weekends and most holidays. Over 200 pieces of rolling stock ranging from "Do we fix, strip for parts or scrap it?" Up to restored pieces that look like new. The largest working railway museum collection in the west with three gauges of track, 3' narrow gauge "Grizzly Flats Railroad"(built around major parts of Ward Kimball's collection), standard gauge and Imperial gauge (streetcars) and standard gauge railroad. Most are from railroads and street car lines associated with Los Angeles, So Cal and the West but a few pieces from other places like two street cars - one from Japan, one from Ireland.
