I have two old family photos that I always presumed were taken at Hoquiam. Judging by the background and the track arrangement, I believe that is indeed where they were taken, albeit a few years earlier (I learned that the Prairie in the photo was scrapped in March of 1936).

The gentleman on the left is my cousin Ed Johnson, who was a fireman (and later engineer) for the Milwaukee. He also lived in Hoquiam. Both Ed and my paternal great-grandfathers (they worked for the NP in Eastern Montana) appeared to have exchanged railroad-related photos over the years.
