It’s that time of year again; the next Brakeman Class at the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum is less than two months away and there are still seats available! This two-day hands-on class is offered twice a year and is the first step for those interested in becoming a volunteer for our weekend excursion train operations. The class will be held on September 8th (date changed from September 7th) and 14th. See the brakeman class webpage on our website for more information and to sign up. Museum membership is the only prerequisite. More info at https://www.psrm.org/brakeman-class/ and also at https://www.psrm.org/volunteer/operations/
