Most excursions use Albany & Eastern diesel-electric locomotives. The operator highlights former Southern Pacific SD9 No. 5399, GP9 No. 1750, SW9 No. 1866, GP35 No. 2501 and several GE Dash 8 freight locomotives that may appear. Restored Baldwin Santa Maria Valley 205, built in 1924, runs only on selected weekends and must be named in the product. Passenger equipment includes indoor dining and lounge spaces, reconstructed open-top flatcars, 1947 Pullman coach 1099 with a snack-and-drink bar, Great Northern ranch car 1241 used as the bar car, and baggage car RFRX 1003. The product description and day-of consist control; no image promises a locomotive, open car or specific historic car.
