"Her customers?" Any real "County Resident" who gave the slightest care about local history would know that Sandy is a dude, as in www.historydude.com, not a "her". Sounds like "County Resident" should really do their homework or even a simple google search before adopting such a title. Maybe "Careless, Clueless, Unappreciative Transplant" would be more appropriate?
Apples and oranges(more like "rust" and "yellow"), but last year Sandy had plans for a similar walk/class along the Del Monte extension from Castroville to Marina-ish, with TAMC on board, but Monterey County balked about an insurance policy (Salinas River bridge?) causing cancellation of the class the week before it was supposed to happen.

Believe it or not, there's an attempt at legitimacy, especially given SCCRTC's "pending purchase."
If UP really wanted to bust busloads of people on the ROW at at trestle or bridge crossing, all they'd have to do is park near either end of the San Lorenzo River bridge or Capitola's over Soquel Creek on any given weekend.
If I have any extra bucks left over from my tax return, I'll probably even sign up for this thing.
