Nostalgia & History > Historic Train Depots of San Diego CountyDate: 10/27/16 12:44 Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: SDA_Brakeman Hello All,
I'm working on a project for the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum about existing train depots in San Diego County. So far as I know, I've photographed almost all of them with exception of Lakeside, Campo, and Jacumba. If anyone knows of some that I've perhaps missed, please do let me know. Enjoy the Photos! 1. ATSF Carlsbad 2. ATSF Del Mar 3. ATSF Encinitas    Date: 10/27/16 12:48 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: SDA_Brakeman 4. ATSF Escondido (Relocated)

Date: 10/27/16 15:15 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: nycman Interesting. Is that a real tree or a cell tower behind the Carlsbad depot? It looks too perfect.
Date: 10/27/16 16:22 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: callum_out I posted a shot of the Escondido depot a while back, the moved version sure looks different!
Great collection of pictures, surprised that all exists, especially Vista. Out Date: 10/27/16 16:36 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: iliketrains Here's Campo and Tecate.
I have photos of Jacumba and Tijuana - just wrong format.   Date: 10/27/16 16:50 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: UPNW2-1083 Topfuel Wrote:

The people that run it now said it was an old auto repair shop.-BMT Date: 10/27/16 17:09 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: partsguy Nice! Great to see them all looking so well cared for, especially TJ station looking so good!

No, I believe that tree is real. Looks like a Norfolk Island Pine to me: https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3605/3393883103_1406da4659_b.jpg Date: 10/27/16 20:47 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: jcaestecker Nice job, buddy!
-Dad Date: 10/27/16 21:11 Re: Historic Train Depots of San Diego County Author: SDA_Brakeman That is indeed a real tree behind the Carlsbad Depot.
As for the L Street NC&O Station, I had no idea either. It is now the Hard Rock Cafe. Vista really stumped me until I drove around for a bit looking for it. Looks like a medical building of some kind now. Encinitas has been repurposed as a coffe shop. Looks like part of the old baggage(?) room downstairs and restrooms might be still relatively the same.
