Great California Adventure

January 2002

Friends from high school and fellow car nuts (and train nuts), Joe and Ray met in Los Angeles for an eight day all-car/all-train extravaganza. They covered over 900 miles and visited every car, train, trolley and model train attraction in Southern California. Here are selected photos from their trip:
