I've hunted alot on the net, and nothing. Still have yet to make it up there to see if the building is still there. With Paul Allen's new training camp for the Seahawks, it's probably dust by know.
Wolfgang- What kind of details do you need? You can probably freelance a fair amount. There were plenty of variances between depots, in how the operators bay, telegraph table, side desks, etc, might be set up. Depending upon how busy that station was... Boxcab E50
Right. I can find that. My wife's younger brother used to live in Tenino. Although it's been about 12 years now, I still remember some of the town. Boxcab E50
The NP Freight houuse is intact, near the bus station in Bellingham WA. The statiion it self I believe is gone.
Out and about today. Quendall- Building is there. Has the RR sign on front. I cannot say that it's an NP sign. If not, it's BN era. Otherwise, I doubt this is a depot. In fact, to be honest, I wonder if Quendall ever actually had a depot. Am checking withsomeone who should know. Tenino- Was actually open today. I used to come to that town several times a year. Nice displays inside. Of both RR, and local area history. They've done a good job! Funny thing- I found a book there, which has a whole bunch of information on my Great-Great Grandfather, and his second family. (His first wife passed away.) Boxcab E50
Just Curious, What is his Familly Name? My familly has some Deep roots in Tenino, to out date the town itself.
Confirmed- There was never a depot at Quendall. It's just the station sign from that former siding. The following once existed on that line segment: Black River, Renton, Wilburton, Kirkland, Woodinville. Boxcab E50
You can add Warden, WA to the list, though the current owner, the Columbia Basin Railway, built a new building next door. You can still visit the former MILW depot in Warden too. Not sure when it was built, but there is a depot and water tower in Wheeler, WA. The depot is a much newer style than was typically built by the NP, but I do not think the BN built it. Also, I think there may be something left of the one in Bruce, WA.
Yes, I could get some photos. Need to research more on that line anyway. There is a surviving pumphouse on the other side of the Wheeler depot too. BTW, I found some information on when the Coulee City depot was remodeled to a single story depot. It is the latest entry on my blog. Link is below.
Confirmed- The depot at Wheeler was built by the NP. Late 1960's. Off to check that blog now... Boxcab E50
Can’t help with any depots along that line, but here’s a link to a web site I use to find them and other RR structures. Railroad Station Historical Society Also if there a structure not in the list, or one listed there gone. Please contact them and let them know. So they can keep things up to date. inch
After looking through their site, I was reminded of a couple. But also see some missing. And some errors. Boxcab E50
RSHS listing are incomplete and will be continue to be without more updates from your own areas or travels. That’s why I ask, if something missing or has the wrong information, sent them an Email, I’ve been doing for awhile now. inch
