Southern Pacific Railroad and the Steinbeck Boys

Local historian, Donald Kohrs has been researching the connections between the Steinbeck family and the Southern Pacific Railroad. It seems that John’s father’s side of the family were regularly employed by the railroad giant. Lots more info is to had by attending this lecture. This is part of the Gentrain program at MPC and might serve as a good intro for those of us who have never attended one of these before. More info at http://www.gentrain.org
