Greeting Cards (5-Pack) - Vintage Mt Tamalpais Engine Number 9 Locomotive - Printed in USA
"The Mount Tamalpais and Muir Woods Railway; was a scenic tourist railway operating between Mill Valley and the east peak of Mt Tamalpais, in Marin County California, covering a distance of 8.19 miles (13.18 km), with a 2.88-mile (4.63 km) spur line to the Muir Woods.
The railroad was incorporated in January 1896, and closed in the summer of 1930. Originally planned as; standard gage; electric trolley line; the railroad was powered by a succession of geared steam locomotives.
Billed as the "Crookedest Railroad in the World", the line was renowned for its steep and serpentine route, winding through picturesque terrain to a mountaintop tavern providing first-class hospitality and panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay.
Despite its popularity, the railway met its demise following a fire in 1929, dwindling ridership when the automobile could finally drive to Tamalpais' summit."
\nThese 5-pack greeting cards capture the bold, mechanical charm of a vintage steam locomotive framed against a clear blue sky. Heavyweight uncoated paper gives each print a tactile, matte feel that brings out the crisp, vibrant tones of the engine and flags.
Folded to a standard 4.25 x 5.5" size, the cards arrive with matching white envelopes and a clean overlapping front cover for a classic, handcrafted look.
Use them to send a note of admiration, nostalgia, or encouragement; the train imagery speaks to journeys, milestones, and steady momentum.
Whether you write a short message inside or leave it blank for a personal sketch, these cards pair an eye-catching photo with premium printing and a weighty, gallery-quality feel.
