Yes, this is a great site. I've bookedmarked it in the past. Once minor correction to the Vasona Branch. It was abandoned in January 1964, not 1962 as stated. Also, it did not pass through the Stanford Campus. It was several miles away. It was used by a daily commuter train until it's abandonment, as has been discussed by me and others here.

The abandoned section is often called the Los Altos Branch, and the surviving section from San Jose to Vasona to Permanente is what is usually referred to as the Vasona Branch. This is splitting hairs and someone can correct me if you don't agree.

I've found a few minor errors here and there, but it is basically a very fascinating web site. Thanks.
