Does anyone know if the UP (ex-SP) line from Watsonville to Santa Cruz is still active? If so, what is the schedule for the locals to the cement plant north of Santa Cruz?

I believe it is still active. I think there was a controversy a year or so ago involving the sudden appearance of trains at night, which they hadn't been doing before, and they were waking the neighbors. I think the residents and UP came to an understanding.

Thanks for the information. Nice web site. Do you live on the Peninsula? I'm in Prunedale (14 months.)

I live in Seaside. We're almost neighbors.
