Yes, it was the Lexington Group plus various other UP people and their wives, etc. I believe there were about 125 at the Lexington meetings. UP always brings some of their biz car fleet to park in Oakland for the winter and this was part of the timing of that. UP VP John Rebenstorf hosted the group and also made a presentation on UP ops in California and the West. The group also had a presentation by Gene Skowroposki (sp?) manager of the Capitol Corridor and he treated us to a round trip from Sacto to Jack London Sq and back. John Signor did a great job recounting the Cantarra loop spill and ensuing circus and Shirley Burman did a great program of the rebuilding of shed 37 on Donner.
