From the Wenatchee "World."
February 7, 2018
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!
Here is the waybill from Sears, who sold windmills by David Bradley, among others. I'm sure it was just the top parts.
Here is a mid-1980s photo of the windmill, along with my grandfather. I'm pretty sure the tower was cobbled together from scrap metal. It still stands today.
And other locations too, including Spokane and Wenatchee.
I have most all of the receipts from over the years, plus the cream cans. Also have the cream separator too, though it's in poor shape.
Photographer unknown.
No date, but a few years ago for sure.
Coming down the hill into Connell.
All the cars seen in the photo reached 50 years of service and were not allowed to be used in interchange service. Those cars were reclaimed from CBRW lines and split up between other state PCC lines.
