The Depot, which was built in 1898 and is #2 on the San Leandro register of Historic Buildings, received roof damage when a large Eucalyptus tree was uprooted and blown over, falling on a portion of our roof and the adjacent G&O Garden Railroad.

The Depot is maintained by the San Leandro Historical Railway Society, houses a railroad museum, a large HO scale model railroad, and a G & O gauge garden railroad.
