“How the old world was powered”

Located on 55 acres of rolling farm ground, 2012 will mark the 36th year the Antique Gas & Steam Engine Museum has been in Vista. Over that period our Museum has grown to become one of the premier educational and recreational facilities in North San Diego County. With around one thousand volunteers, our Museum's collections focus on the 1849 through the early 1960’s era with exhibits that actively demonstrate farm equipment and tools from horse drawn through modern row crop. Unique from traditional Museum, our collection is maintained in operating condition and used during a wide range of events held here on the grounds. Volunteers operate our equipment to help maintain and repair, our property and our collections. While our Museum is operated as a semi-static museum most days we do have active demonstrations throughout the week. Our Weaving exhibit is open every Saturday & Thursday for demonstration. Blacksmithing is taught and demonstrated every Saturday from beginning through advance classes and our N' Scale Model Railroad building is open every Saturday from 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
