The following post and inquiry was on today's RLHS list.

With little comment over the years from those who generally would do  
so, Hayden's former CBQ office car sat hunkered down in the weeds on a  
siding at the north end of Sausalito, CA  (inactive/abandoned NWP) for  
many years.  It was especially evident to those driving through  
Sausalito en route to Muir Woods or Mt. Tamalpais.

A few years ago I broadcasted a general inquiry as to its fate, and  
received not a single reply!

Someone must know.
