The Western Pacific Railroad Museum in Portola has a very diverse collection of passenger cars from various eras ranging throughout the history of the Feather River Route. Ornate executive business cars, baggage cars, mail cars, sleepers and coaches all share track space together in Portola, in varying states of restoration and preservation, taking our visitors back to a more romantic era of travel.
No less than four examples of the famed Streamliner, the "California Zephyr", are preserved in Portola, telling the story of the "Most talked about train in America", including the last remaining dining car from the CZ, our "Silver Plate", and Western Pacific locomotive #805-A, the last of WP's Passenger diesels. Welcome aboard!
