There are several other privately owned passenger cars at this location that will not be open to interior tours, but you can walk around including: ex-NP heavyweight RPO, ex-UP coach, ex-GN baggage and a fully restored and frequent Amtrak traveler: former GN round end observation that was originally used on the "Seattle International" between Seattle and Vancouver, BC. Also in Spokane this weekend is a Railroad Show at the Interstate Fairgrounds on Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 to 4:00. But beware of traffic, Spokane also has a large marathon called Bloomsday that takes place Sunday AM, 55,000 ++ runners expected, but Mikes open house is well worth the hassle---one thing is, you never know who your gonna meet at his open house.
