Central Coast Railroad Festival

The Central Coast Railroad Festival (CCRRF) is a broad-based festival that focuses on railroading of many types with an eye toward the beauty of the central coast of California.

The Festival is designed to attract the attention of avid and casual rail fans as well as curious folks from across the Western United States. It presents historical, educational, and recreational events for local citizens, the area's large population of second home owners, and visitors. The visibility of all local rail entities as well as railroading in general is elevated and enhanced by the Festival. A cooperative spirit is developed among all participating organizations to promote their mutual well being and to expand interest in all things rail!

This year's Central Coast Railroad Festival is scheduled for October 4-6, 2024. Savvy Festival folks will know that means some events start in September of 2024 and the Model Railroad Layout Tour will begin on Thursday, October 3, 2024.
