Colleen, I have posted an ad in reference to the Orphan Train that stopped in Oakland in 1904. It is under the tab "Blog/News." Let me know if that is what you were wanting to look for. Barb

Would there be an opportunity for me to visit the genie room to search for information about an orphan train stop in Oakland? Thank you!
