Support the Historic Santa Fe Cantilever Signal Bridge Project.
The Pacific Railroad Society supports the Historic Santa Fe Cantilever Signal Bridge Project. Mr. Paul LaCiura is working to erect a Santa Fe cantilever signal bridge in Rhoads Park, San Dimas CA, right next to the historic San Dimas Santa Fe Depot. We want to help save this piece of industrial architecture for San Dimas, to serve as a monument to railroad's influence on the historical development of the San Gabriel Valley. The PRS is collecting donations for this project to help realize this dream, which will greatly enhance the City of San Dimas and our facility. PRS Inc. is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization which promotes historic preservation and education on the railroad's role in history and society in general. Check out the project website at:
