"Magical Mansfield Monday"

Courtesy of Blair Kooistra. 

August 1, 1983

Blair says:

"Dynamic brakes in full howl, descending the coulee above Columbia River, Washington, returning from the Mansfield Branch with a trainload of 40' boxcars filled with wheat. . . among the last places in the United States where grain still moved in this outmoded but time-tested method."
