Since the Employee and Public Timetables did not always match, it would be interesting to see what was the status of this station through 1940. The Milepost (#60) shown to the right in Wilbur Whittaker's photo can be seen currently on the left wall of the model train layout at the Santa Clara Caltrain station. I found it face down in 1970 on the embankment on the right and donated it to the Los Gatos Historical Museum who eventually sent it on to Santa Clara. They incorrectly describe it there as a "companion board" in other words, there were two boards with the # 60 on it facing in both directions. But in fact, the # 60 was on both sides of the same board and the paint had worn out on one side after years of being exposed to the elements. "60" refers to the distance in miles from San Francisco.<br />Duncan Nanneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2151799760990306051.post-74715356840686712112017-11-10T10:02:30.705-08:002017-11-10T10:02:30.705-08:00MROSD is in early talks with SJWC to buy the land ...MROSD is in early talks with SJWC to buy the land in this area.
