On December 5, 2015 in San Diego to watch the Denver Broncos face the Chargers for possibly the last time at Qualcomm Stadium, I finally got to go to the San Diego Model Railroad Museum.

There are few things that grab a child’s attention like a model train speeding past, and the miniature world where it lives. If you’ve ever put a toy train around the Christmas tree, or tried to set up a model train layout in the garage, the San Diego Model Railroad Museum will inspire the whole family.

Since retiring, I force myself to go run HO trains at the Museum every Thursday. Drat! Anywhoooo.... I look forward to my Thursdays. First off is the Union Pacific Heritage SD-70ACe Spirit of Union Pacific with a tribute to the military paint scheme. Air Force blue first with the Coast Guard red stripe. Battleship Gray behind the American Flag for the Navy with the camo paint on the end for the Army and Marines. On the very back of the engine is the MIA emblem lest we not forget! The Spirit of Union Pacific engine is numbered after the B-17 bomber built (and shot down shortly after) in 1943. The engine has the nose art from the bomber on it and is pulling an excursion passenger car set behind it.
Then a 2-8-8-2 Santa Fe Steam engine pulling a mixed freight of SF cars. Then the Union Pacific Gas Turbine pulling a load of mixed reefers. And remember Mike. $64.95 with $6 shipping.

The museum is located in Balboa Park and is housed in the former Ford Building, which is listed on the US National Register of Historic Places.[5] SDASM was established by articles of incorporation on October 12, 1961 and opened to the public on February 15, 1963.[1]

The museum was first opened to the public on February 15, 1963 in the Food and Beverage Building, which had been built in 1915 for the Panama–California Exposition.[10] In 1965 the museum was moved to the larger Electrical Building.
On February 22, 1978 the Electrical Building and the Museum were destroyed in an arson fire.[11][12] Several one-of-a-kind aircraft were destroyed, including the Beecraft Wee Bee, the world's lightest aircraft, and her sister craft the Queen Bee. A reproduction of the Spirit of St. Louis, built in 1967 by some of the same people who built the original, was also destroyed, along with more than 50 other aircraft, an extensive collection of artifacts and archives, and the International Aerospace Hall of Fame.[12][13] Owen Clarke, the museum's executive director, said of the $4 million in losses, This is unbelievably tragic. When you've spent that length of time acquiring history, building something up to where it had international prestige, then see it all disappear in a couple of hours, what else can it be?[14]

San Diego Model Railroad Museum
Train Lover's Episode
It all goes miniature in this episode as Sara visits the largest model railroad museum in North America. Located in San Diego in historic Balboa Park, the San Diego Model Railroad Museum boasts 27,000 square feet of model railroad layouts. From the intricately detailed N and HO scale to the noisy and fast toy trains, Sara learns what it takes to be a railroad modeler from museum director Anthony Ridenhour. This is miniature railroading on a massive scale!
Sara even drives a train along Southern California's famous Pacific Desert Line. Accuracy is the name of the game here as modelers share the historical and topographic detail of their layouts. The famous Tehachapi Loop, where trains cross over themselves, is captured in 1/87th detail in a layout more than 90 feet long.
Sara drives a trolley! Visit the Centennial Garden where 1915 San Diego has been recreated using old fashioned modeling skills and modern 3D printing technology. Visitors here can drive San Diego's original trolleys along an old trolley route past Balboa Park's iconic structures reproduced in miniature.
Finally, nothing but fun in the Toy Train Gallery! Meet some famous characters, including a giant marshmallow man, at the completely original toy train layout sponsored by the San Diego 3-Railers.
You can find more info including directions and museum hours at:
What episode would be complete without Sara's Cam? You'll meet her newest pet, the energetic and lovable Stefano the chinchilla as Sara tries to capture him on camera.
This is the twenty-fourth episode of Sara's Town: a YouTube series created, written and hosted by Sara McMahon. In an interesting and family-friendly way it features the people and businesses of Southern California. Sara's vision is to be a positive role model for children. She wants to Help kids be kids by letting them enjoy the everyday blessings all around us - sometimes right in our own hometown.

San Diego Model RR Museum Visit
This is a video of all the model train N,HO,O,and scale model train layouts in Balboa Park located outside of San Diego CA. There was 2 HO train layouts which were located in the center of the whole building while the rest of the layouts were on the perimeter of the structure. The HO layouts model the desert and city landscapes of California as well as some coaster commuters on the N Scale layout. To finish off my visit, i had walked into the gift shop which i got some neat Union Pacific attire shirt with all 6 heritage units and ball cap with the UP Logo. Enjoy the video. I had no tripod with me so some shots might be a little shaky while others are not as shaky.
