Great shots, Martin. I would concur with the Wabash Local being a Ewe - Pee job; Wabash was, I believe, an early U.P. place name where the branch to Hannaford coal mine split off the mainline, North of Centralia. Perhaps served out of Centralia ??? I have read that only Great Northern freights used the N.P. Prairie & Ft. Lewis lines between Tacoma & Nisqually; all U.P. & N.P. through trains used the Pt. Defiance line, at least after WWII.
