Transportation
The South Pacific Coast Railroad was incorporated on March 29, 1876, and financed by Comstock Lode money. Its northern terminus was the San Francisco Ferry Building. Passengers were transported by ferry to Alameda, where they boarded the cars for their 77.6 mile rail ride to Santa Cruz. In 1886, Benjamin Campbell gave this station site to the railroad, and on July 1, 1887, the line was leased to Southern Pacific Railroad.
