The Milwaukee Road In Kittitas County part 2
Loading...
Uploaded by Renslowpro on Jan 25, 2009
Traveling in a speeder from Kittitas to Beverly and back, you'll experience a section man's view of the Milwaukee Road over the Saddle Mountains in 1953. Observe everyday life that evolves around the Ellensburg Depot, including repainting the depot and pulling up the original wooden platform. Catch a glimpse of Cle Elum and Hyak and witness the last passenger train and its final stop in the Kittitas Valley. This is the Milwaukee Road in Kittitas County.
Edward Emanuel shot the film used in this movie while he was an Agent at Ellensburg WA. Mr. Emanuel gave the film to me during the summer of the 2006 when preparations for the Heritage Centers Railroad Exhibit of 2006 were underway. When I received the film, a good portion of the film was out of sequence and had to be put back in chronological order. Once the film was put back in order captions were created using information provided by Mr. Emanuel. The film was created for a special showing during the 2006 Ellensburg Rodeo/Fair. The Heritage Center's role for the 2006 event was to display the countys railroad history. This film was one of many different vintage railroad items on display from both the Milwaukee Road and Northern Pacific. I hope everyone enjoys the film!

I grew up with the Milwaukee Road in Wisconsin and always dreamed of getting out west to see her out there. I never did. It was a great railroad that would be here today if it weren't for pathetic management.

About 10 years ago my brother and I, who then lived in Mattawa, went to Beverly, ignored the No Tresspassing signs and walked across the Beverly Bidge. Where the Boxcabs once followed the double iron.

I bet if you live there it will be depressing. This railway was truly great.Transcontinental Rail Electrification has yet to become a reality in the USA again sadly due to political constraints sadly rather than economics.
