This photo was taken summer 1981. My grand mothers home was half mile down, and to the left of the tracks. X SP&S mainline. There is a scan of this old print, down in the BN files, but smaller.

This is how we become, life long train nuts.

I roamed thease tracks from 1958 to 1964. Went to stay with my Granny, but could not stand my step father, drank like a FISH. He did make shure, the bills were paid, and there was food on the table. So I moved back with my Granny, in Camas, WA. To this day I still mis here, 42 years later. Passed on in summer 1964.

This website was started on 03/26/2000.

I have been taking photos of trains for many years, and very happy to have place to share them with every one. The photos on this site cover over 70+ years most are from the 1950's to the present. The SP&S steam go back to the 1930's. This site is just a small part of the history. The History of railroading in the great Northwest.

Also we'll have photos from other people mostly from the Rolland Rodway collection, And Jack Taylor collection.

I have scanned over 800+ photos of Rolland's and will put many of them on these pages.

I would also like to thank Darrell Sawyer and Mark Magill for helping me get started, and keeping it going .
I would also like to thank Brian Ambrose for his great shot form the state of Washington.
