This site features daily historical railroad posts from the Big Bend/Columbia Plateau region of Washington state. As a personal site, this is my online filing cabinet of interesting things I've come across about railroading in the area. Thanks for stopping by! Shoutout to Kirtus Dolorina for stopping by to borrow other people's work!

Where NP and BN banned 6 axle power, now we see former Santa Fe SD40-2s.
First view is along Wheeler Rd near the old Simplot plant (there's a new one now too, both in operation.)
Coming up the former Milwaukee Road sugar spur after setting out cars at Seiler. That's Interstate 90 crossing above.
