MILW Caboose |
Description: |
This Milwaukee Road cupola caboose is beached in Sequim, Washington, near MILWs Port Angeles line (later the Seattle & North Coast Railroad mainline). The caboose is likely in the Milwaukees 1600 series of standard cupola cabooses. This car appears similar to photographs of MILW 1608, a regular of the Bellingham Area. |

Olympic Railway Inn |
Description: |
Located in the city of Sequim, Washington is a small inn. The aptly named Olympic Railway Inn is constructed entirely out of old railroad equipment, mostly ex-Burlington Northern cabooses. In an image taken from Washington Street, part of the property is visible. The front office is made up of the old Sequim depot, an ex-CB&Q passenger car (CB&Q 344), and BN caboose 12339. Visible in the background are several of the cabooses used as rental units. |

New Life For Two Cabooses |
Description: |
Two ex-BN cabooses and others rest in Sequim. The Olympic Railway Inn rents out the cabooses to visitors. Burlington Northern 12363 retains its cascade green and yellow colors, while BN 12094 has been repainted into a red Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe homage livery. Santa Fe never actually rostered a caboose numbered 12094. |

CR 23071 |
Description: |
Conrail 23071 is a long way from home at its new home in Sequim, Washington. The ex-Pennsylvania Railroad caboose (cabin car in Pennsy parlance) was built sometime during WWII as PRR 477872, a class N-5C cabin car. The N-5s were among the most common cabooses in America, and many ended up passed on to PRR successors Penn Central and Conrail. The car was renumbered to CR 23071, and lasted in service until the late 70s/early 80s. Somehow, the car found its way to the Olympic Railway Inn, where it is now used as a cottage. |
