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.

Bridge #11
1939 Douglas County Plan showing a new road revision under bridge #11 because of a big flood in 1938 that washed it out. This trestle was located between Slack Canyon and Pegg Canyon in Douglas Creek at mile post 21.8 along the line.
