Bill says:
"This view shows the west end of Milwaukee Road's station at Beverly, WA. The main track and siding are still lined with unused catenary poles, although the wire has been removed and sold as scrap. Electrics ceased operating in 1972. Diesels will continue to ply these rails until mid-March 1980."

Sad picture....
As a former track inspector, I look at those ties and wonder what was holding the rails in place?
Lick and a prayer?
I remember pulling spikes right outta' the ties!
