Four of these cars are former Western Pacific cars sold by the WP to Railcar Restoration and Development Company of Tracy, CA in July of 1975.

They were stored off of the WP at the Sharpe Army Depot.

They are baggage car 126 (Pressed Steel Car Company 1923/24), Coach 314 (Pullman 1923), Baggage Mail Express 201 and 202 (American Car and Foundry 1915).

They have housed various retail operations over the years at this location, and some have had doors cut into the sides for customer access.

The fifth car is a former Santa Fe heavyweight coach, which has been modfied to represent an open platform car.

An internet search for Calistoga depot will yield various images of the retail complex.
