English: Northern Pacific railroad workers on handcar, ca. 1905 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: The Northern Pacific Railroad bought the Seattle, Lakeshore and Eastern Railroad in 1891. The company wanted to take advantage of the excitement surrounding the mining boom in Monte Cristo and the lumber boom in Everett. In 1902, the Northern Pacific bought the Bellingham Bay & Eastern line, thus linking Seattle by rail with the towns on Bellingham Bay.
This photo, taken around 1905, shows a railroad gang from the Northern Pacific on a handcar somewhere between Snohomish and Bellingham. This may be a section crew which looks after the rails.
