Ancient postcard on e-Bay of the San Francisco Zoo train (22-inch Cagney) at its original location, the boardwalk at Santa Cruz. Thanks to the GGRM folks, this train is running again (on clean CNG). I even got to take it several times around the circle a few years ago, fulfilling a childhood dream. The engine was said to have originally run at the St. Louis worlds fair of 1903. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1445&item=2242586515&rd=1#ebayphotohosting ryarger@rypn.org |

I rode the train last Sunday and have many times before. I am a coal fan and it's natural gas fuel sure smells strange! The ride includes a bridge over the pond, a tunnel which is the engine house in the off hours and several mineature crossing gates to go through. ted_miles@nps.gov |
