Promoters of a Napa Valley “wine train”...

Promoters of a Napa Valley “wine train” will have to prepare an environmental-impact report and comply with California Public Utilities Commission safety and pricing procedures. The PUC order followed a commission investigation of the proposed train, which would offer passenger service for the first time in 60 years between Napa and St. Helena, after complaints were filed by both cities, the intervening town of Yountville, the Napa Valley Vintners and Grape Growers associations and 15 other parties. They maintain that the train, whose promoters say would carry half a million passengers a month, would worsen present overcrowding in the popular tourist area.
