Re-Discovered
The last remaining volumes of the San Ramon Branch Line of the Southern Pacific are offered for sale at the Museum store for $35.00.
These truly are the last we have, and once they’re gone there will be no more. Now you have a chance to purchase this reader friendly, well documented history of the Branch Line from its beginning in 1891 to its eventual abandonment in 1978. Its tracks were removed and became the Iron Horse Trail now populated by walkers, cyclists and runners.
