Local history run by volunteers, covering the old Fallbrook railroad, with the Pittenger house on the same site to tour. Reviewers rate the volunteers highly. It opens only a couple of afternoons at the weekend, so check before driving out. You can spend as much or as little time as you have.
A small campus with a main museum, the restored 1895 Pittenger House and a barn full of old farm equipment — the centerpiece is a working model train ringed by replicas of twelve early Fallbrook buildings. It's open a three-hour window on weekends, so plan around it.
