Railroad Days 2016

Railroad Days 2016

Railroad Days 2016's fantastic lineup of locomotives and rail cars plus 14 model train layouts at the Fullerton Train Station drew more than 35,000 for the most successful event ever!

Southern California Railway Plaza Association, Inc. sends its appreciation to all the families, rail fans, sponsors, exhibitors and vendors who took part in Railroad Days 2016—including many who arrived by train at the depot.

A Special Thank You To Our Volunteers!

Without SCRPA's wonderful organizing committee and member volunteers, Railroad Days could not happen. From the Friday setup through our two days of welcoming guests, managing exhibits and hosting displays, we had more than 50 members who gave their time and energies to make 2016 the most successful in the organization’s 16 years of presenting this event.

Presenting Sponsor: Amtrak®
