Corvallis & Eastern train at North Santiam River, Mill City, OR
Author: heatermason

From a postcard owned by Maud Clark, a sprightly and alert 96 years old when I met her, whose extended family had helped grade the Oregon Pacific in its run toward the Santiam Pass (and not been paid when things went belly up).  The bridge is still the original covered wood Howe truss and not the steel Pratt replacement still in existence as a walking path.

        Very neat view of the C&E, looks like a fairly long train heading up to Detroit I assume. I'm surprised this didn't get 
   more interest, you might try the Steam board if you have more like this. Thanks for posting this one.
