Gotta love it- box cabs in the street and a railroad that calls trains "dead freights".

Great stuff!!! I was through Snowquami Pass afew weeks ago nad could see the old MILW right of way to the left as I was going west. You could still see some of the poles from the wire days.

Holy cow! I work just a couple of miles SW of this location. I didn't even know that the rail lines had been electrified through Renton, or that these types of locos were still in use in 1971. What a cool photo! Thanks!
