The museum is located inside the car. I visited on July 18, 2020. Due to covid restrictions in California, the museum is closed until further notice. Inside are some artifacts from Seal Beach's early history as a popular train car station on the LA metro lines.
The plaque says, "The Pacific Electric's Southern District was completed in 1902. In 1903 Philippe A Stanton organized the Bay City Land Co. which developed the townsite of Bay City. "Red Car" service began in 1904 transporting tourists and early residents. The town was incorporated in 1915 and renamed seal beach."
