Burlington Northern train 88 ascends a 1% grade through Lynch Coulee on the former Great Northern east of Trinidad, Washington.
Not much, seemed there was a train every 45 minutes when I stayed up there-plus the wind was making my old Pathfinder rock back and forth! Other than that, very peaceful up there.
One of the coolest places to stay the night, is on the hill in the center of the loop!
ReplyDeleteHow much sleep would you get?
