| Easton WA was the Northern Pacific's primary helper base on the east side of the Cascade Mountains and Stampede Pass. Where there was once a large yard, roundhouse and wooden coal dock there is now only about 3 tracks and units to help get grain trains over the pass. Here a four-unit helper set drifts back into town after working to get another westbound over the mountain. The crew will jump in the crew bus to the left when done. |
