Built by the Great Northern Railway in 1909, the 61 mile line branched off the mainline at the Columbia River and snaked its way up across Douglas County, WA to its terminus in Mansfield. In 1985 it was abandoned, thus closing the book on railroading on the Waterville Plateau. This blog is dedicated to preserving the history of the Mansfield Branch Line and Waterville Railway Co., as well as showcasing my scratch built HO scale models.
Interesting way of how I got a hard copy of it last fall, via Wayne Smith of Trinidad, while at the Reiman-Simmons House fall thingy in Quincy. Very nicely done.

He must have bought it at the mansfield museum. We had about 100 or so prints made for the mb 100 years.
