    They Don't Make Them Like This Anymore

    This trestle is located near downtown Snohomish, WA. It was part of the NP line from Seattle/Black River to Sumas, WA. In later days it was used to access a feed mill in downtown Snohomish. The mill switched to trucks so the bridge is no longer used for rail transportation
