Nostalgia & History > California Western Railroad - 1972 Skunk Schedule

Found this while cleaning up the in-laws house. I've also got the accompanying brochure which I'll scan at a later time.

This is the schedule from my one and only (so far)
trip on the Super Skunk!

Family vacation in August, 1972! Great memories, we went one
way from Ft. Bragg to Willits. My dad drove the motorhome to
Willits and got some photos of the train in between. He gave
me his movie camera with a short bit of film left and I got
a few "action" shots from onboard!

This was my very first trip riding behind a steam locomotive.

The train was pulled by the #46, a 2-6-6-2 logging mallet,
the locomotive is now at the PSRM in Campo, Ca., where I spent
more then 25 years as a volunteer!

I'll have to see if I can dig up the photos and film from that day!

Thanks for posting this, again Great Memories!

I just posted 1971 memories

Mike:

I also rode the #46 both ways about that time frame.

Awesome to watch all the rods going around. Fun day.
