Explore the railroad right of way as it passes through scenes and landscapes from the Pacific Northwest, along with some excursions into neighboring states. Enjoy over sixty full-color photographs along the journey through all types of weather.

Major railroads represented in this work include the big Class I Burlington Northern - Santa Fe ( BNSF ) and the Union Pacific ( UP ) down to local flavor Columbia Basin Railway ( CBRW ) and others.

Spend some extra time in Vancouver, Washington and Connell, Washington for more in-depth images appreciating the local flavor to a fuller degree.

Sunrise to sunset, rain and shine, the freight continues to move through the photographed seasons.

So grab a copy, settle down behind the dropping gates, and savor the "Long - Long - Short . Long -" sound of an approaching train.
