1965
The lovely little passenger depot (in Colonial Revival style) at Fort Bragg, California is so familiar to me. This view was taken circa 1965, or slightly after. Before '65 it was painted white with black sash and gray trim, the "colors" it wore since its construction in 1923-24. The soft yellow with added "Skunk" train emblem and railroad name on the crest of the roofline came with the re-introduction of summer-season steam passenger excursion trains, a.k.a. the "Super Skunk." Man, does, this photo take me back.
