Album Info:We visited and rode the Mt. Rainier Scenic railroad in Elbe, WA on a western trip in June, 1990. The engine crew invited me forward for a cab ride, so I have an extremely favorable impression of this tourist-hauler. I believe the trackage is ex-CMStP&P (i.e. The Milwaukee Road). I'm also surprised at not seeing a whole lot of Mt. Rainier Scenic photos here in the RRPictureArchives database. This is a gem that deserves more coverage....
