Thanks for the views. Boy, it sure is overgrown. At Davenport do the tracks just end or are they cut back towards Santa Cruz.
There used to be a lot of tracks up there. I know it ended at MP 91 but as you came to MP 81 you had Moceo on the right, then Birds Eye & Santa Cruz Artichoke on the left. Then on the right you had Mondo, Pfyffer, then Lipton Tea on the left. Finally, Wrigley was on the right. Then after a bit you came to Granite Rock, kind of like a passing track on the right. Then finally you came to MP 90, crossed Hwy 1 and had the passing track on the left. The passing track went to the end of track and was used as a tail track in order to switch PCA Gypsum, PCA Cement and PCA Lime Rock on the right. There was also a long storage track off the main track. Thats where the main turned into the passing track and tail track.
