Hello all, it's been awhile since I've posted.
I was wondering if anyone knows where the old Northern Pacific Railway Depot from Arlington, WA is located. I recall reading that it had been moved offsite to private property a number of years ago (2005, perhaps?). I live in the Arlington area...

Some old railroad equipment, including Weyerhaeuser Fairbanks-Morse #1, sits on the siding at the Northwest Railway Museum's Conservation & Restoration Center, located between Snoqualmie and North Bend, Washington.
This was found on a lying on a beach on Whidbey Island, WA. The wooden frame lying at an angle seems to have four flanged wheels, as well as a small winch at one end. Several rails can also be seen lying around. I have no idea what exactly this was.
