Note the locomotives of the WER next to the old depot/senior center. Also note the string of refrigerator cars stored on the spur out beyond Odair.
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! --Dan Bolyard
