Remarks & Notes 
Forty years ago BN 6928 climbs Stevens Pass with an eastbound intermodal train at the apex of the curve on Foss River bridge. The train begins the 2.2% grade climb from Skykomish by following the Foss river a couple miles, then making a horseshoe over the river on this bridge and continuing up the Skykomish River valley to Scenic and the Cascade Tunnel.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
