Nostalgia & History > SP 'Suntan Special'Date: 06/27/16 20:47 SP 'Suntan Special' Author: fmaffei Hogheaded asked if Suntan ran over the hill
to Santa Cruz?-- Yes it did 'till the big storm of 1940. Heres proof-from my files Location is 'Big Trees' just south of Felton CA. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/27/16 20:49 by fmaffei.

sphogger Date: 06/27/16 22:49 Re: SP 'Suntan Special' Author: CA_Sou_MA_Agent Indeed it did. I know a guy who rode the train over that line before it was shut down.

EO Date: 06/28/16 12:29 Re: SP 'Suntan Special' Author: 4451Puff You can still ride in a heavyweight coach through here from Felton down to the Boardwalk. The big trees are still there. (albeit a little bit bigger)
