Eye On The Bay: Lost Bay Area - Time Travel - 9/2/11
Tonight Eye on the Bay journeys into the past for some remarkable stories about places and events now lost in time. Our host Brian Hackney will follow the route of the world's very first Air Mail Delivery in 1911 – from Santa Rosa to Petaluma. And, we'll hop aboard the last train running on a historic railroad line that steam engines used to ply San Francisco's Embarcadero. We'll travel to Coyote Hills Regional park in Fremont to go even further into the past – some 2000 years ago - when Ohlone Indians lived on the land. Now you can see the ruins and enjoy beauty of the marshlands.
