Western Pacific Railroad Museum - Portola, California

Latest Museum News Update:

*Last updated May 18th 2013

The Annual WP Historical Convention has been a rousing success! The Feather River Rail Society would like to thank our gracious host, the California State Railroad Museum, all of our presenters and volunteers and especially all of our guests for supporting what we were repeatedly told was our best convention yet! Stay tuned for reports and photos from the convention at the museum blog (once we have all had a chance to rest!)

The Western Pacific Railroad Museum at Portola is home to North America's largest and most complete collection dedicated to telling the story of one railroad. It is also one of the few places where you can experience rail history in a truly "hands-on" way. Come sit in the cab of the world's largest and mightiest diesel locomotive, climb aboard passenger cars from the California Zephyr, and take the throttle of a real locomotive under your control.

The Museum is now open for the season. Weekend train rides resume Memorial Day weekend! See the train rides page for more details.
