San Diego Bronies tour historic National City California Southern Railroad Depot

Details

San Diego Electric Railway Association has invited bronies, and railroad enthusiasts to tour the historic "Station and General Office, California Southern Railroad". There is no entry or tour fee, however, the building which was built in 1882 is maintained partially by donations of those who visit it; therefore, we encourage all who attend the meetup to provide a donation.
