In this view today, you would be looking at the Grant County Fire District 5 Station 6 location, alongside Stratford Rd, near the intersection of Road 12 NE.
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!

Odd Leased Power On The EWG
Leased engines come in all various shapes and sizes, and the bulk of them come from EMD. So it was a rare treat to see a GE leaser making a round trip to Coulee City back on June 19, 2014.

Marcellus Today
I had the opportunity to go a photograph what is left of Marcellus back on September 14. The grain elevator is still in service. I wasn't sure where the depot was actually located, though I thought I found the well.

Rockslide Near The Tunnel

Gus was a Roadmaster out of Ephrata, and a few of his photos have recently turned up. Most seem to date from the 1950s.
Rockslide was in a cut just downgrade from the tunnel on the Mansfield branch.

Tunnel 12

Gus had mislabeled the photo as having been the tunnel on the Mansfield Branch, but that is clearly Rock Island Dam in the distance, making this Tunnel 12, before it was daylighted in 1957.

Photo is not labeled, but looks to me like the facilities down at Riverland, just outside the Hanford Reservation, just outside of Vernita.
