Shown here are Great Northern Railway Section House Plans originally dated 1904 and revised up until 1916. Provided by Bob Kelly of the Skykomish Historical Society. Two of these structures still remain from the MB Line. One sits next to the Mansfield Museum and the other resides in Alstown.
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.
