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. Thanks for stopping by!
After 19 years and over 6400 posts, it came to me I needed a logo for an upcoming project.
Readers of this page for any length of time will recognize this late 1960s photo. I'll wait for the internet to steal this one!

Back on October 21, 2010 John Neff joined me, my wife, and daughter for a walk of the former NP through Dry Coulee, south of Coulee City. Here we are at the old station of Bacon.
I want to point out that either the roads since then have changed a bit (very likely), or the person doing the map made a mistake (also likely). The road now doesn't go south out of Bacon, nor can I see where the old road alignment went south from there, and you can see a lot of where the old road went back in the day.
From the Coulee City "Dispatch."
