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? Dan Bolyard

1956 Mosey Local At Othello
Drew Miller photo. Courtesy of Allen Miller.
Speculation about this being the Mosey Local was based on the number of tank cars in the train, likely having carried jet fuel to Larson Air Force Base.

The GN boxcars in the center of the photo seem to be in bulk cement loading service, from the amount of white dust seen near the doors.

According to the roster provided by John Taubeneck, and posted on this site here, the two locomotives on the right are former Western Maryland engines. Not much is known about the one on the left.
