1968 Northern Pacific Train Brief- The old Connell Northern

Coal Storage Building in Coulee City

One of the oldest non-residential buildings still standing in Coulee City is this old coal storage building.

It was standing in this 1922 map of town.



The current owner is BNSF, not the state or the Eastern Washington Gateway Railroad.

A Difference of Decades Coulee City Depot

Found a 1977 photo of the Coulee City depot, not long after it had been moved from its original location. Compare it to what it looks like in 2008.



It looks really good with all the foliage, plus it has newer siding on it now.
