On to Healdsburg and the Ferry with "evil" SMART! Double the IPA production at Lagunitas, transload rock to meet the aggregate shortage in CA, on the "nefarious" NWP.....

And, restore a nice tourist operation from downtown Eureka to Fortuna along the Eel River....with a stop for Ice Cream at the Dairy by Ferndale....

Whatever happened to the trash by rail proposals from the Bay Area, to greenwaste facilities in Nevada, and land fills in Utah? And, whatever happened to trash by rail proposals from Sonoma and Marin?

I can see why greenwaste might be on hold due to low energy prices on any methane produced. But with most of CA is running low on dump sites that don't create groundwater problems, and with those now open filling up fast, and more "customer" service oriented RR's, how is this "traffic base" looking these days?

With weed legal in CA, these Humboldt and Mendocino's "cash" economies may crash, when they move that all to factory farms in Chowchilla..... So a tourist train might even help.... Although, as with all things SMART/NWP, the Nimby's, loonies, and train haters will almost certainly object.....
