Ken,

Thanks so much for the pictures. Sure looks alot different then when I was a kid growing up there. My grandfather used to take me to the crossing to watch the SP local pass when I was a kid. And then one day they began tearing it up. I think it was in '79 just before my little brother was born. I cought the railfan bug thanks to that branch line. Funny thing is I was only six years old when it was abandoned.

I have always wondered if the branch had made it until the late 80's or 90's if it would have been made into either commuter rail or light rail.

Thanks again,
Matt
