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!

Was this Geep really running on friction bearing switcher trucks? Or were these trucks temporary?
Here's the same locomotive on conventional Blombergs: http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/LocoPicture.aspx?id=56220
Now it's at the Washington State Railroads Historical Society: http://www.wsrhs.org/loco.htm
I know it does not have them now, but I have yet to figure out when they were changed.
