In this August 1942 photograph, Billy Jones poses with sons Bob and Neal at the University of California while Bob was on leave from the Army Air Corps. Neal attended U. C. Berkeley for six months and then he too enlisted. "I really planned and built that miniature pike for my two sons, Neal and Bobbie," Jones wrote in the December, 1944 issue of Railroad magazine, at the end of an article on his experiences on the South Pacific Coast. "But the lads grew up even before the dedication ceremony and went into aviation service. Last spring the War Department notified me that Bobbie was missing in action. I have not given up hope that he is still alive and that after the war, both boys will come home to find moments of recreation on the Wildcat Railroad." JON005Collection
