Seems they didn't generate enough $$$ as the state didn't renew the contract. Woolburr wrote in post #12437974 Thank you D-Backs! Indeed! Great Game! Former Brave Kelly Johnson - Hero! Jay

Timphoto Creme de la Curmudgeon  More info | May 19, 2011 00:40 | #332 I think I know what I'm doing Saturday. Sturgeon Sawmill, a 1914 steam-powered nonprofit historical facility, located in northwest Sebastopol is open this weekend. Its entire operation, linked by wide moving belts, spinning flywheels and the cacophony-whistle of steam power, is made possible by just one steam engine, used originally to power the US mint in SF during the Gold Rush and subsequently sold to run timber operations at Korbel Winery.

That they seem to generate more revenue for the operating companies than they do for the municipalities and do nothing for safety. John

The "Red Light" cameras have actually been shown to have the desired effect. The accident rate has actually gone down around the valley. Jay

Sounds like it might be interesting to shoot. I saw an episode of Huell Howser's show from that sawmill. I think it would be a lot of fun to visit! I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures. My name is Lonnie, but I answer to Thomas too.
