A torus fibered Calabi-Yau threefold with first homotopy group Z_3 x Z_3 isconstructed as a free quotient of a fiber product of two dP_9 surfaces.Calabi-Yau threefolds of this type admit Z_3 x Z_3 Wilson lines. In conjunctionwith SU(4) holomorphic vector bundles, such vacua lead to anomaly free, threegeneration models of particle physics with a right handed neutrino and aU(1)_{B-L} gauge factor, in addition to the SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y standardmodel gauge group. This factor helps to naturally suppress nucleon decay. Themoduli space and Dolbeault cohomology of the threefold is also discussed.Comment: 51 pages, 13 figures; v2: references adde
