Totally Local VC Dinner at the Tracks

Totally Local VC Dinner at the Tracks

Take a trip with us on the rails with the Fillmore Western Railway as you taste, savor and take in the views of the bounty that is Ventura County’s. Once the train pulls into our dinning location, guests will disembark to find your place at the table and, in keeping with the Totally Local VC style, guests will enjoy a dinner served al fresco in communal, family style at one of our elegant and iconic locations.

Chef Jason Collis of Plated Events is our featured chef for the evening, preparing wonderful courses that will be perfectly paired with beverages from Cantara Cellars and Poseidon Brewing. Dessert will be prepared by Chef Melissa Reed of La Dolce Vita and served with locally-roasted coffee from Beacon Coffee as you ride the rails, enjoy the evening air and listen to the sound of the engine as it guides you back to the station.

Touring the Utah Midland Railway

The Utah Midland is a twenty mile shortline that hauls coal from the mines in Spring Canyon. The HO scale occupies 13 by 30 feet of Al Lindop’s basement. The extraordinary three times around dogbone track allows for an excessive amount of track in a dense area. The track plan is unbelievable, and Al continues to improve it. Over the past 20 years, the layout has been revised and remodeled several times.

Following the Voyage of the Utah Midland
In part two of the 7-part Utah Midland Railway series, Allen Keller narrates the journey of an engine as it begins its motion out of Spring Canyon. The engine makes its way through Tanner’s Cut, Miller Pass, and Lockwood. The engine passes by several large coal mines, a miner supply company, miner shacks, and a few stores before the line loops under itself and returns Spring Canyon Yard.

Allen provides a first-hand look into the Utah Midland. You’ll get a glimpse at the track, the scratch built mines, and the sandstone cliffs. In the part three of the 7-part Utah Midland series, Allen recounts the operations of the Utah Midland as it travels the lines throughout the day.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
The Pacific Electric Railway Company, nicknamed the Red Cars, was a privately owned mass transit system in Southern California consisting of electrically powered streetcars, interurban cars, and buses and was the largest electric railway system in the world in the 1920s. Organized around the city centers of Los Angeles and San Bernardino, it connected cities in Los Angeles County, Orange County, San Bernardino County and Riverside County.
The system shared dual gauge track with the 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) narrow gauge Los Angeles Railway, Yellow Car, or LARy system on Main Street in downtown Los Angeles (directly in front of the 6th and Main terminal), on 4th Street, and along Hawthorne Boulevard south of downtown Los Angeles toward the cities of Hawthorne, Gardena, and Torrance.

Calling All Cars: Curiosity Killed a Cat / Death Is Box Office / Dr. Nitro

The radio show Calling All Cars hired LAPD radio dispacher Jesse Rosenquist to be the voice of the dispatcher. Rosenquist was already famous because home radios could tune into early police radio frequencies. As the first police radio dispatcher presented to the public ear, his was the voice that actors went to when called upon for a radio dispatcher role.

The iconic television series Dragnet, with LAPD Detective Joe Friday as the primary character, was the first major media representation of the department. Real LAPD operations inspired Jack Webb to create the series and close cooperation with department officers let him make it as realistic as possible, including authentic police equipment and sound recording on-site at the police station.

Due to Dragnet's popularity, LAPD Chief Parker became, after J. Edgar Hoover, the most well known and respected law enforcement official in the nation. In the 1960s, when the LAPD under Chief Thomas Reddin expanded its community relations division and began efforts to reach out to the African-American community, Dragnet followed suit with more emphasis on internal affairs and community policing than solving crimes, the show's previous mainstay.

Several prominent representations of the LAPD and its officers in television and film include Adam-12, Blue Streak, Blue Thunder, Boomtown, The Closer, Colors, Crash, Columbo, Dark Blue, Die Hard, End of Watch, Heat, Hollywood Homicide, Hunter, Internal Affairs, Jackie Brown, L.A. Confidential, Lakeview Terrace, Law & Order: Los Angeles, Life, Numb3rs, The Shield, Southland, Speed, Street Kings, SWAT, Training Day and the Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour and Terminator film series. The LAPD is also featured in the video games Midnight Club II, Midnight Club: Los Angeles, L.A. Noire and Call of Juarez: The Cartel.

The LAPD has also been the subject of numerous novels. Elizabeth Linington used the department as her backdrop in three different series written under three different names, perhaps the most popular being those novel featuring Det. Lt. Luis Mendoza, who was introduced in the Edgar-nominated Case Pending. Joseph Wambaugh, the son of a Pittsburgh policeman, spent fourteen years in the department, using his background to write novels with authentic fictional depictions of life in the LAPD. Wambaugh also created the Emmy-winning TV anthology series Police Story. Wambaugh was also a major influence on James Ellroy, who wrote several novels about the Department set during the 1940s and 1950s, the most famous of which are probably The Black Dahlia, fictionalizing the LAPD's most famous cold case, and L.A. Confidential, which was made into a film of the same name. Both the novel and the film chronicled mass-murder and corruption inside and outside the force during the Parker era. Critic Roger Ebert indicates that the film's characters (from the 1950s) represent the choices ahead for the LAPD: assisting Hollywood limelight, aggressive policing with relaxed ethics, and a straight arrow approach.
