#1369	Heisler	1918		HHRR	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The Heisler locomotive was used for hauling timber from the forest to the mill in the Mother Lode country. It was built by the Heisler Locomotive Works in 1918 and was the 369th locomotive built by them, so it was assigned shop number 1369. Heisler built a total of over 600 locomotives in various sizes. This geared locomotive weights 75 tons and all 12 wheels on the three trucks are driving wheels. The large parts that protrude diagonally from the sides of the locomotive just in front of the cab are the pistons. The pistons operate a crank shaft which rotates two drive shafts that turn all 12 wheels. The locomotive was originally built for the Hetch Hetchy Railroad to haul material for building the dam that supplies drinking water to San Francisco. In the mid 1920s the locomotive was sold to the Standard Lumber Company of Sonora, California, which later became the Pickering Lumber Company. The locomotive stayed there until it was donated to Travel Town in 1952. It was donated by Pickering Lumber Co. in Standard, California, while F.F. Momyer was their president. Its initial restoration was done as an Eagle Scout Service Project of Will Cosso and was completed on 25 June 2016 with the help of Arcadia Boy Scout Troop 111, Travel Town Volunteers, friend and family. Further restoration will continue.

#1	EMD diesel-electric switcher	1942		US Navy	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The 42-ton, 300 hp diesel-electric switcher #1 is one of three built by EMD in 1942 for the United States Navy. Eleven of these locomotives were built between 1940 and 1943. It hauled coal and supplies at the US Navy's Torpedo Station on Goat Island, Rhode Island as well as at the North Island Naval Air Station in San Diego, California. In 1962, it was moved to the McDonnell-Douglas Aircraft Corporation's Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant at Torrance, California, where it was used for additional 25 years. In March 1988, McDonnell-Douglas donated it to the Travel Town Museum and was used there as a switcher. It got the name "Charley Atkins" after the founder of the museum. It is unusual that two diesel engines are used to drive the electric DC generator from both sides, one with clockwise rotation and the other anticlockwise.
#56	Baldwin RS-12	1955		McCloud River Railroad	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	California Western Railroad #56, which was built by Baldwin in 1955 for the McCloud River Railroad.

#21	San Francisco Municipal Railway	c.a. 1880		San Francisco cable car system	3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm)	This San Francisco cable car is an example of an early in-town passenger car, called a California car, with some interior space inside a compartment and other benches open to the weather. This type of exposure was not practical in most areas of the United States apart from California. In 1952, even before Travel Town formally opened, founder Charly Atkins asked the Mayor of San Francisco for a cable car to display, but was told, with an apology, that cable cars could not be sold or given away. Three years later, a solution was found: A cable car was placed on loan as the center piece of the 1953 International Flower Show in Los Angeles. Afterwards, it was moved on permanent loan to Travel Town.
#1273	Switcher	1921		SP	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The 0-6-0 locomotives #1273 is one of thirty-two 0-6-0 locomotives built by the Southern Pacific at its Sacramento workshops. Six more were built at the railroad's Los Angeles work shops. It was built in 1921. Classified as an S-12, it worked as a switcher in SP's Sacramento yards during its career. It was oil-fired. Its weight is 153,000 lb (69 t) and it has 20 by 20 in (510 by 510 mm) cylinders and 51 in (1,300 mm) diameter drivers. With a 30 sq ft (2.8 m2) grate and total heating surface of 150 sq ft (14 m2), including 255 sq ft (23.7 m2) superheating, it had a boiler pressure of 200 psi (14 bar) and tractive effort of 31,020 lb (14.07 t). It was decommissioned in 1956, after it had logged over 1,500,000 miles (2,400,000 km) during 35 years of service. The following year, it was donated to the Travel World Museum by Southern Pacific.
#1000	Mikado	1920		HHRR	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The 2-8-2 (Mikado) type steam locomotive was built in 1920 by Alco (builder's number 61535) as #4 for the Hetch Hetchy Railroad. It was used on its 68 miles (109 km) long line, which was built by the City of San Francisco to construct the O'Shaughnessy Dam on the Tuolumne River in Hetch Hetchy Valley, Yosemite, California. In 1924, it was sold to the Newaukum Valley Railroad, a line owned and operated by the Carlisle Lumber Company in Washington state, and was re-numbered #1000. The symmetric axle configuration of its 2-8-2 wheel arrangement permitted easy bi-directional operation, making it particularly suited for logging. In 1944, it was sold to the Santa Maria Valley Railroad, which served oil refineries in Santa Maria, California, as well as hauling produce to the Southern Pacific's mainline at Guadalupe, California. The Santa Maria Valley Railroad donated the locomotive to the Travel Town Museum in 1954, when it introduced diesel locomotives. The locomotive is oil-fired, has a weight of 195,000 lb (88 t) and had a boiler pressure of 180 psi (12 bar), delivering total tractive effort of 35,700 lb (16.2 t). It has 48 in (1,200 mm) drivers, and the cylinders are 20 by 28 inches (510 by 710 mm).
#3025	Atlantic	1904		SP	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The 4-4-2 (Atlantic) type steam locomotive #3025 is one of 13 built for the Southern Pacific by Alco (builder's number 30005) in 1904 and was classified as A-3. Its very large 81 in (2,100 mm) diameter drivers were designed for achieving high speeds of more than 100 mph. The oil-fired locomotive has 20 by 28 inches (510 by 710 mm) cylinders with an inside Stephenson link motion and a boiler pressure of 210 psi (14 bar). It delivered a tractive effort of 24,680 lb (11.19 t). It was the first standard gauge locomotive to go on display at Travel Town in 1952 after being donated to the museum by the Southern Pacific.
#31	Los Angeles Harbor Department	1921		Los Angeles Harbor Authority	4 ft 8+1⁄2 in (1,435 mm)	The 0-4-0T saddle tank steam locomotive #31 was built in 1921 for the City of Los Angeles Harbor Authority by the Davenport Locomotive Works of Davenport, Iowa. It was oil-fired and has a weight of 42,000 lb (19 t). The boiler pressure was 192 psi (13.2 bar), The tractive effort was 11,080 lb (5.03 t), and it has 11 by 16 inches (280 by 410 mm) cylinders and 28.5 inches (720 mm) drivers. #31 was bought for the development of the Los Angeles Port of San Pedro, mainly on the island of Catalina. Its sister engine #32 is also exhibited in the Travel Town Museum, and another little saddle tank, #33. The locomotives hauled rock from a quarry to the shore of Catalina Island, but occasionally worked also on the main land. The construction of San Pedro Harbor commenced in 1899, and the area was annexed to Los Angeles in 1909. By the 1920s, it was the US West Coast's busiest seaport, and, in the early 1930s, a massive expansion was begun including constructing a two mile long outer breakwater and a smaller inner breakwater with docks for sea going vessels. The three engines continued in the development of the harbor until the early 1950s when dieselisation of the harbor motive power began. Destined for the scrap yard, #31 was identified as a candidate for the museum's collection and was donated by the Los Angeles Harbor Authority along with #32 in 1953. Its cab was breaking up and in 2018, #31's cab was rebuilt.
