David Stewart General 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. 3/4/2008 11:38:46 PM
George Redmond General Nice shot. 3/5/2008 10:24:43 AM
Gregg Bartley General 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! 3/10/2008 12:19:57 PM
