Show and Tell

Custom Built Airstreams

In the 1960's Airstream built several custom trailers primarily for Western Pacific Railroads. They were used as crew cabins for railroad workers.


















This one is located at the Western Pacific Railroad Museum in Portola, CA. The Sierra Nevada Unit, WBCCI is in the process of getting this Airstream restored. The effort is spearheaded by past SNU President, Jerry Thornburg.



Initial efforts by the SNU to preserve and restore this Airstream including covering it with donated tarps to keep out snow and rain and hauling the mattresses stored in it to the dump.
