On many occasions during past years, my Julie and I have parked our RV overnight on the vacant land to the East, and enjoyed the show. BNSF, UP, AMTRAK coastal service and Washington/Oregon TALGO service. BNSF Trough-Train to the nearby steam plant. Classic Northern Pacific depot - lots of red brick. Grade crossings with sound effects. View of maybe a half mile of the line. We ate, slept, and ate well.
Nearly all the property is now storage garages with orange trim. Considering most people's attitude towards grade crossing sound effects, this is probably the "best use" for the property.
