Ballard Then and Now

  • Media owner SteveO

55 Years Apart - The 1947 Empire Builder is rerouted along the "Ballard Low Line" (GN's original 1893 main line) while the bridge is closed for repairs. - The Ballard Terminal Railroad hauls two empty cement cars out to the BNSF interchange at Shilshole.
Outstanding. Looks as if the bridge doesn't open as wide as it used to.
 
GN 504 was built 6-1945 as GN 502A;BTDL was built 3-1940 as MILW 869
