Visit Santa at Nevada County Railroad Museum on Saturday

For old-fashioned holiday fun, go to the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum in Nevada City. On Dec. 4, you can ride on a steam-driven train, see toy rail cars in snowy settings, even visit Santa Claus.

The gift shop is a welcome reprieve from toy-store chains: It offers railroad-related toys, games, puzzles and books.
