 
Welcome to Great Northern Railway Page! My name is
Lindsay Korst.
I have been a big fan of James
Jerome
Hill's Great Northern Railway
from an early age. The black & white
photo from October 1960 is my
brother
Mark, me and my Dad
watching the Empire
Builder emerge
from the
north
portal of the Seattle tunnel. That's
also me trying on
my new GN conductor's
hat
a little more recently.
Rocky lives! If you know where to look, there are still
traces
of the old Great Northern Railway to be admired. Above we
find
GN #1147, an F-8 class 2-8-0 steam locomotive reposing in
Wenatchee's City Park.
It's time to revisit Stevens Pass and enjoy those orange BNSF
monsters lugging tonnage over the mountains.
CLICK HERE or
on the steam engine above to read about my May 2020
train-spotting expedition.
August 2020 Update: With the addition of the Chehalis railcam, I
had
to check out BNSF's Seattle Subdivision.

story.
October 2020 Update: Let's
railfan the former Great Northern,
now BNSF Bellingham Sub, past and present.
