From the Spring 2025 Issue of "Coast Mail" (#91)
Docent of the year
Our 2024 docent of the year
Gary See is always willing to
take on another task. He has
cheerfully worked on exhibits,
website development, security
and web-feed cameras, wiring,
and various maintenance functions. He often can be seen at
special events, welcoming visitors and taking photos.
Farewell to an exceptional crew member
With great sadness we report the passing of Diane Marchetti. Diane served as
museum manager since the Freighthouse
opened. She ran the Museum Store, processed memberships,
recruited and trained
docents, and helped
with events.
Her many friends on
the Central Coast and
in Hawaii will miss
her.
Webcam at the Museum
Thanks to Museum volunteers Greg Jackson and Gary See,
and the folks at SouthWest RailCam.com, since November 2024
we've had a live video feed at San Luis Obispo. You can watch it
on YouTube or directly through the SouthWest RailCam website.
Greg and Gary mounted the camera on the roof of the Freighthouse, using a bracket that Gary designed and fabricated. The
camera can be pointed all around the Freighthouse and be zoomed
in and out.
And much more...
