    Here are some photos taken a couple of days ago of some of the standing bridges and right of way. The sawdust burner in LaBam adds a little more history to those photos.
    The first photo is looking west over the bridge at Forks Creek
    The second photo is the bridge over Half Moon Creek at LaBam
    The third photo is the bridge over Trap Creek
    The forth photo is LaBam
    The fifth photo is the bridge over Forks Creek
    If anyone has more info please let me know .

    It's a shame so much is gone. This would be a great scenic trip line. As would the Milw in that area. Some day, they'll regret it's being removed.

    :sad:

    Ken-

    If I remeber correctly, at the time of the abandonment of that line, the Centralia-Chehalis railroad I think had looked into buying at least a portion of it for their tourist train. I think the section they were looking at was from Milburn to Pe Ell.
