Tehachapi Depot Railroad Museum

Thanks for The Shout Out Tehachapi Tourism Commission! We can’t agree more.

Step back in time at the Tehachapi Train Depot, it is the perfect place to explore the stories, artifacts, and engineering behind one of California’s most iconic rail communities.

Whether you’re a train enthusiast, history lover, or just looking for a unique local stop, the depot offers a glimpse into the past while celebrating the legacy of the rails that continue to connect our community.

Besides The Train Show next weekend, don’t forget about Mountain Fest and all the fun things that go with it!

The Friends of The Tehachapi Depot will have a booth at The Tehachapi Loop Railroad Club Train Show. Why don’t you stop on by?
