apparent approx S limit of grading work near Pigeon Point
- "Half Moon Bay saw its first train in the mddle of October [of 1908], and by year's end the rails had reached Tunitas Creek, which was spanned by one of the Ocean Shore's most spectacular wooden trestles. At that point tracklaying stopped and Tunitas Glen, as it was called, became the last station on the northern division. Through passengers traveling from San Francisco to Santa Cruz would detrain and board a Stanley Steamer autobus which provided shuttle service between the end of the line and Swanton. The little bus with its red plush upholstery was quite comfortable to ride in and was very quiet, showing only a little plume of steam as it bounced along the dirt roads, but it was to operate only temporarily -- until the tracks could be completed. In the meantime grading continued south of Tunitas Glen to Pigeon Point."

Gideon & North Island RR

Gideon & North Island
From SSWHS:
The Northernmost of the lines was the Gideon & North Island, a logging road incorporated April 30, 1908. Its 56-pound rail extended five and one-third miles southeastward from the Cotton Belt main line at Maiden, Missouri, to the town of Gideon. For its first two decades of existence, the G&NI was owned by the Gideon-Anderson Lumber Company, which operated a sawmill at its southern terminus. For $80,000, the Cotton Belt obtained the main line of the Gideon & North Island, plus a right-of-way toward Deering. The lumber company retained more than ten miles of logging trackage fanning out from Gideon, as well as the G&Nl's roster of locomotives, which held no great appeal for the Cotton Belt. Over 131,000 Cotton Belt dollars were spent reconstructing the G&NI during the next two years
