Unfortunately, current public health conditions make it advisable to cancel our remaining tours of Potrero Yard for the month of January. We are hopeful that we can re-start tours next month, and the signup form located here reflects this revised schedule. (All dates are subject to change, of course.)
Join a tour for a behind-the-scenes look at how a transit yard works and see why our 107-year-old yard needs to be rebuilt.
Attendance requirements and the available tour schedule can be found on the Tour Registration sign-up form.
