Santa Clara Tower

[mloik]

Hello all,

I went to the open house for the South Bay Railroad Historical Society in Santa Clara, CA this past Saturday. They had the Santa Clara tower open, which was quite a treat, and my 2 yr, 9 month old son and I were one of the first people to go up. To see the tower, visit http://www.sbhrs.org/Buildings/tower/tower.html

We split our time railfanning and going inside to the model railroads. Outside, we saw a host of UP freights, two Amtrak California trains, a bunch of Caltrain runs, and a lone switcher returning from somewhere up the peninsula.

It was a great father and son day, and if any of the SBRHS members are on the forum, thanks.
