I think it was in the fall of 1990 - Cal Western had the #45 running again and had brought into Willits to run a special trip. I had my ticket for the Saturday trip, since I was already in Willits anyway. Our EUKA GP38 lost a radiator on Friday's trip back to Willits, so instead I spent Saturday deadheading to Scotia for another unit, light engine to Dos Rios, a triple? runaround to around our cars, then finally to Willits.
The worst trip is the one you never took - I still have never been on the Cal Western. I guess I had better add riding a Skunk to my bucket list.
