ep 71- Lost Trains, Cement Ships and the History of Rio Del Mar

from Flight 1080 · host Dave Michaels

Flight 1080 – Episode 71: Lost Trains, Cement Ships & Aptos Legends In this episode, Dave is joined by Aptos History Museum board members John Hibble and Dick Garwood for a deep—and often surprising—dive into local history. Together they explore the story of the SS Palo Alto "Cement Boat," the long-gone Seacliff swimming pavilion, the mystery of the missing train in the Forest of Nisene Marks, and the early days of Rio Del Mar. It's an hour packed with forgotten landmarks, strange disappearances, community lore, and the kind of historical gems only John and Dick can deliver.
