This is a very nice spot to visit, especially if you are in the South Bay area of LA County. Take a sack lunch and make it a fun stop on your itinerary. Stop at King's Hawaiian in Torrance on the way home.

The volunteers that manned this little museum are precious. They will have the answers to all your questions about the history of this place.

This Museum is in a neighborhood of a small town. So very quaint ...They have alot going on in a small space. Very Organized and very nice! Alot of work has gone into this Great Little Museum. I was pleasantly surprised. I have also gone to presentations & they are very nice as well.

This was our first visit to this nice little railroad museum. It's not the big railroad museum but it is real nice. There is a steam locomotive, freight cars, hand car, two cabooses, a water tower, and a railroad station with exhibits. The price isn't too much and you can spend several hours.

Haven't been here in years, it's not huge so it won't take up you whole day to see every thing. If like steam engines this is the local place to visit.

This is not a large museum, but it is very enjoyable and has plenty of interesting stuff, especially for kids.

I made a trip to Lomita just to see the Railroad Museum after it was mentioned in the AAA's WESTWAYS magazine. This is a very small museum that tries to be much more than it is. I was surprised at how small it is. There is an attractive train depot that serves as a small museum and gift shop. Outside are two trains--a dining car and a steam engine. If you love trains, as I do, it is fun to walk through the dining car and to climb up to the engine and see the controls. The attraction is very small and not worth a special trip to Lomita. Of course, if you are in the area, why not stop by? There are two train cars in the small park across the street from the museum and another car in the vacant lot next to the museum. I imagined the small plot will give the museum a chance to grow. There is train memorabilia in the train depot museum but most of the displays are minimal. There are better train museums around but of course, this is the only one in Lomita. I give the museum high grades for having an attractive facility in a small plot of land wedged in around apartment buildings. This museum could be so much more but it is limited by the available space. They've made the depot look so nice and if you never get a chance to enter a train, here is your chain. Again, this attraction is small and I was disappointed that I used a chunk of a vacation day to visit.

This little museum is tucked away in a small residential area in Lomita, on the PV peninsula. There are 5 train cars in total (if my memory is correct): two cabooses, one tanker, one box, and one steam engine. Visitors can walk through one of the cabooses and climb up into the steam engine. There is also a small museum building with train models and artifacts. The person who founded this museum used to build miniature train sets for use as amusement park rides. I got the impression that these little trains may be available for viewing and/or riding at an offsite location, but I did not pursue this while I was there.I'm not sure that this place is worth driving across the whole metro area to visit, but if you're in the neighborhood and you like trains, it's definitely worth a stop. When I was there, it was $4 for adults and $2 for kids. There is plenty of free parking.
