California - Golden Gate Railroad Museum (GGRM)
Shellville, CA - The Golden Gate Railroad Museum (GGRM) is dedicated to the preservation of steam and passenger railroad equipment, and the interpretation of railroad history in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit institution.
In 2005, the Hunters Point facility was closed for remediation, and the GGRM collection was moved to the Niles Canyon Railway where operation and restoration efforts continued until 2016. In early 2017 the GGRM announced that the organization would be moving to a new home in Shellville on the Northwestern Pacific Railroad. Restoration work shifted to the task of preparing the entire collection for the mainline move to Shellville.
