We're On Time!
In any event, the Dome finally has new items, plus an upgrade of the old. First, The Dome now has a New Arrivals page that lists significant additions and revisions. Second, there actually is a large haul of new stuff, the first since 2005 - with more coming. Third, I've re-edited many old pages with the hopes of making them intelligible (you be the judge). Fourth, remember all of those broken links?: fixed; bounced or unanswered email? see below.
In all, we're hoping to steer this course for the immediate future, as I am able. Advancing age has not been kind.
Apology for Unanswered Email Part 43
I'm now able again to respond to email sent to the address shown below. During the lengthy re-editing process I discovered that many of the Dome's more-ancient pages still showed the original e_o@.... address. That ebox was spammed into oblivion in 2004. I truly am embarrassed and sorry to those likely-many many readers who forwarded comments and info, only to receive no reply. If you are of the mind, please try again. I'm looking forward to it. One further matter: Now that the email thing is corrected, I am hoping for a massive influx of donations, as solicited by my An Earnest Plea for Lots of Money! I can't think of any other reason that I have never netted any cash outta this.
Moving forward, several SP San Jose area track maps are nearly ready, as well as some Sanborns. Quite allot of other stuff is in varying stages of completion, dependent upon personal whim and, again, the infirmities of advancing age.

Hate annoying ads? Do you think that 'commercial-free' PBS has more advertising than network TV? Please don't let Wx4 go this route: An Earnest Plea for Lots of Money!
Too old & brain dead to hire out with a railroad?

For more historical info on the Bay Area, fellow engineer, Frank Caron, has excellent and extensive coverage on SP's San Bruno Branch / Ocean View Line (the original route to San Francisco) at his Railroading in the San Francisco Bay Area site. We note that he has finally updated his site after a long dry spell. Way to go, Frank!
