After leaving the Staver Locomotive open house this evening (in N.W. Portland) I drove out St. Helens Road and noticed that the small crew shack at the old yard in the Guilds Lake industrial area has been demolished/removed (it was small enough it could have been picked up and trucked off.)
I had thought it was abandoned until I caught the crew working there and they tied up their SW-1000 around lunch time and went inside. Not sure what was in there (i.e. computer, phone, fax, just a small area to have lunch...?). But it's all gone now.
The ratty BN caboose is there still, as grafittied as ever. Looks like someone is occupying one of its porches and made it their home.
