The Lomita Railroad Museum is a popular area attraction. Referred to as a “work of art” the museum was meticulously designed and built by talented artists, including John W. Gallareto, who was the main designer and builder. Amongst the many treasures on display are the Southern Pacific Railroad Steam Locomotive and Tender, the Union Pacific Caboose, a modern all-steel Santa Fe caboose, a Union Oil tank car, a Southern Pacific outside-braced wood box car and a Water Tower.
