Description
"The Northwestern Pacific Railroad tracks passed diagonally through Valley Ford until abandoned in 1930. Boissevain's photograph shows the stock corrals used for loading animals on the trains. The distinctive house in the background is now Dinucci's restaurant; today's photographer stood in front of the Valley Ford Volunteer Fire Department and pointed west to get this picture."
