What? Another Car Show
October 23, 2009
It has become apparent that residents of the Inland Empire love their cars. I don't mean the vehicle that takes you from point A to point B. I mean the historic, the unique, the restored cars that show up at the the car shows that seem to be occurring quite frequently.
This Saturday, at the 1918 Santa Fe Train Station in San Bernardino, more than 100 classic cars will be displayed out side this building which is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Unlike many car shows that are sponsored by not-for-profit organizations, this car show is free for both participants and spectators. Should you want to attend the Juan Pollo dinner in the museum at 5 p.m., there will be a cost of $20. At the dinner there will be a slide presentation.
The coming of the railroads to San Bernardino was the impetus for the growth of the city.
The purpose of the event is to get people to visit the Santa Fe Depot and Museum. According to Steve Shaw, President of the San Bernardino Historical and Pioneer Society, the huge size of the restored depot will furnish a great backdrop for the car show. There will also be a live auction, some raffles and awards.
