I just took my 4 year old son here today. It was a great time. We really appreciate the fact that such a museum exists. Highly advised.

This has expanded since I was last there. BART legacy I think is going to be challenging.

There are many, many stories about Rio Vista. I volunteered there in the late 1970's(and did a lot of growing up there). I remember when Peninsular 52 and P&SR 63 were first put back into service. The Shay, many other things. Thx
