A Trip to see the San Diego Model Railroad Museum in Balboa Park 12/20/2012 Part 3



by Chris Guenzler

Now we will look at the SDMRM Presents the Southern California LEGO Train Club in its Annual Holiday LEGO Train Exhibit. Beginning Tuesday November 22, 2011, thousands of LEGOS will make up this giant train exhibit. Come see buildings, landscape and lots of trains made entirely of LEGOS. Join us in this wonderful holiday tradition at the San Diego Model Railroad Museum.

Model trains in display cases showing the various scales.







Three more views of the model railroads. It had been a fantastic visit to the San Diego Model Railroad Museum here in Balboa Park. AC Adam and I drove to the Old Town Coaster station to watch some trains but first the San Diego trolleys would arrive every 15 minutes.





San Diego trolleys arriving in Old Town. After watching two sets arrive and depart, we knew our Coaster train would be next.





Coaster Train 651 arrived with a very colorful car.





Coaster coach 2501 was wrapped to promote Wells Fargo Bank.





Coaster Train 651 departed for Oceanside, after which AC Adam dropped me off at Ash Street as I had one more picture to take.





Pacific Surfliner 583 was ready to take me home to Santa Ana. We left San Diego on time and I worked on the story most of the way home, arriving three minutes early, ending another excellent adventure.

I would like to thank the San Diego Model Railroad Museum for the use of their material in putting this story together.
