The Southern Pacific Train Depot is located at 205 Railroad Ave. and W Prospect Ave in Danville, California. It was built in 1891 on land donated by John Hartz as Standard Station No.22 which was erected when the Martinez line was extended south to San Ramon. The first train came on June 7, 1891. Passenger service ended in 1934. The Southern Pacific continued to pass through town with freight, with the last train in 1978. The building was sold in 1951 for the Danville Supply and Feed store until June 1996 where it was purchased and moved 100 yards. It now houses the Museum of the San Ramon Valley.
