"Hemphill noted that for the first time in years, the NCRA is on the verge of opening a 60-mile section on the south end of the Russian River division that runs from Lombard to Willits.

John H. Williams, president of the Northwestern Pacific Railroad Co., reiterated, as did others present, that the tourism train is definitely a possibility and will attract tourists. It's long been an aspiration of the Timber Heritage Association. The main route would run from Eureka around Humboldt Bay."
