Celebrated in style.

But we couldn't decide on how to decorate the cake.

I wonder if NPB ever contemplated the loss of the PE line(s). San Clemente promotes summer rail traffic through the Metrolink Beach Cars from Riverside. Maybe NPB could not stand an increase in tourist traffic. The bus service runs well North-South, but not from the inland communities.

At least the inland crowd can head to Mentone Beach.
