In addition to our station museum with HO and N scale operating layouts, the Santa Clara Tower (the last of its kind in California) will be open for tours and photos.

This is THE place for railfanning n the Bay Area, so don't miss it!

We are at 1005 Railroad Avenue in Santa Clara (across from Santa Clara University) or check our website at www.sbhrs.org

Holland America's new luxo domes will be there as well, correct?

Yep, open for viewing both Saturday and Sunday.

The Tower will be open this weekend too. A LOT of work has gone into it and it's a real treat to the eye. The visual track display (now computer driven; the UP won't let us tie into their track circuits for some wierd reason, dammit) is a replica of what the tower originally had when it opened in 1926 and a there's a LOT of history on display.
