NW Railway Museum – Bringing the Past to the Future

Posted on September 30, 2012 by sherijkennedyriverside


You can see this new page and the slideshow by clicking here.

This slideshow is from a train ride and group party on restored cars to an overlook of the Puget Sound Energy hydroelectric plant project at the top of Snoqualmie Falls.  Then it’s off to the restoration shed to see cars in varied stages of restoration and the equally interesting tools used to work on them.  Many of the tools are from the era of these trains, as our modern tools are no longer made to handle such large wooden beams.  Enjoy this trip back in time and a look at the painstaking handiwork of those committed to this amazing restoration project.

The Snoqualmie Depot shown here is at the heart of our Valley and people come from all over the world to see Snoqualmie Falls and to take a ride at the NW Railway Museum.
