Garden Railroad Display at the San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum
1940 Santa Barbara Avenue, San Luis Obispo, CA
CCCGRS invites our community to learn more about the creative hobby of large scale model railroading. On Saturday only, our group will operate an outdoor display at the SLO Railroad Museum featuring circus trains and circus big top, plus a few surprises! Stop by and say “All Aboard” during this limited time display.
Cascade Peak & Buena Vista Railway

Mark and Michelle Edwards welcome festival guests to this Disney Parks inspired garden railway. Guests are encouraged to explore the miniature landscape. The more time you spend, the more you see and hear!
Santa Maria, CA
Walt and Julie Wajda invite you to celebrate the autumn season on-board one of the longest continuously operating garden railroads on the central California coast. The J & W Railroad is a local favorite.
