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.
I know it's easy to grab an image from here and post it elsewhere, like Steve Renfrow does, but if you do, could you at least give this site a little credit?

Interesting to find out what engine 2576 was about. I have a picture of the same engine with the engineers standing by it from a family collection.
Do you know who is in your photo?
