Ph. 509-674-2006
The Milwaukee Road’s mid-west train line embarked on a bold Pacific Coast expansion from 1906 to 1909, turning the railroad into a transcontinental giant with over 1300 miles of new track being built simultaneously from many points in the west. The Depot, built in 1909, was the site where train operations were organized, crew changes were made, and telegraph communication was possible. The Beanery, now called the Depot Caf�/Smokey’s BBQ, fed train crews and locals. Now days, the Interpretive Rail Yard Trail guides visitors through significant locations of interest.
Usually open on Saturday and Sunday. Check website for hours of operation: www.milwelectric.org
