Historic vehicle collectio
The public is welcome to visit the collection.
Based in San Jose, CTRC is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the history of railroading and trolleys in the Santa Clara Valley. It welcomes the public to visit its collection of historic vehicles. Visitors can see restoration work on site, including work on the 1923 Southern Pacific locomotive SP 2479. The organization also invites people to join and help restore and operate its vehicles. Its collection and exhibits include locomotives, a trolley, historic automobiles, and a 1921 traction engine. Some artifacts reflect the region's railroad history, including the South Pacific Coast Railroad and San Jose's former railroad facilities. CTRC is proposing a future museum based on a scene at the old San Jose railroad depot.
