The Birth of California's Narrow Gauge Railroads

"Promoting the Discussion of the History, Development, and Preservation of Narrow Gauge Railroads in California" The name of this page comes from the proposed title of a new book by Bruce MacGregor. The book will cover the beginnings of California's narrow gauge movement, tracing the first six lines built - the Monterey and Salinas Valley, the Santa Cruz Railroad, the Santa Cruz and Felton, the Santa Clara Valley, the North Pacific Coast, and the Nevada County Narrow Gauge. A common thread found tying together all these efforts is the presence of Thomas and Martin Carter and their company, the Carter Brothers.
