Cloverdale Reveille, 07-November-1924 |
The Northwestern Pacific -- and its predecessors -- has always been one of my favorite railroads. In this ad, it offered excursion service from Cloverdale in Sonoma County to San Francisco and back.

The railroad faced competition from the Redwood Highway Stages, buses which ran down what is now CA-101 to Sausalito, where they boarded ferryboats to cross the bay, and then continued to Fifth and Mission Streets. "Direct to 5th and Mission streets without change." Riders on the train had to debark in Sausalito, board a ferry to San Francisco and then ride a streetcar or take a taxi to their destination.
