We visited with the guard who works here! She was super friendly and we talked about when the 4014 Big Boy visited Barstow! The ballroom light fixtures are the originals, including one that had been stolen and recovered years later out in the desert.

I always stop here on my way to Vegas. It’s about a half way point for me. Perfect to get out of the car and stretch, use the restroom, grab a bite and take off for the long haul. Inside they have a McDonald’s, subway, Panda Express, a Popeyes located outside and all kinds of other collectible items in the station like kick ass hot sauce, flasks, snacks etc. there is a train station behind as well. Parking is large but can get pretty crowded on the weekends.
