While surfing the internet I happened on this image of an interesting Minature Train. I found out it was one of three such trains that shuttle visitors around the Venice beach resort town that opened in 1905. Curiosity got the better of me and I set out to find out what happened to the cute small scale 2-6-2. Funny thing is, it’s right here in my own area. It is located at Vasona Park in Los Gatos, CA. The Billy Jones Railroad. I had no idea of the history. I took some pictures back in the early 1980’s.
