Thanks Alf, as many times as I went by there on EUKA trains, I don't remember it.
As to the Healdsburg table, I went by there today with my son and took along a tape
measure...it is 80' long, so I was mistaken in thinking that it was shorter. You
can actually walk right by it & miss it now as it is so overgrown with berry vines.
Best way to access it is to park on the city street that crosses by the South or
railraod West end of the yard and walk in. It is not too far and is on the West or
left side of the yard which has recently had its weeds cut. As I said, the table is
easy to miss, but worth looking at.
