Location: Parts Unknown | The top photo shows the old tunnels where U.S. 10 popped out of the east side of Baker Hill. If one spun on their heels at this spot, they's be looking out across the Lake Washington flouting bridge toward Mercer Island and Bellevue/Beaux Arts on the far shore. Keep driving and you would end up in Boston eventually ! This was "home" from 1966 to 1969. We regularly traveled this route to visit my Great Grandparents in Alki. Go through the westbound tunnel, across a viaduct over Rainer Valley, where a hard-to-believe-existed free left turn across eastbound traffic put us on surface streets to go up and over Beacon Hill and drop down to Spokane Street, that would take us across the industrial section of Seattle to West Seattle and Alki. All this you see here was built in 1940 and was amazingly still just as you see it until about 1970. ================================ The guy with the DeSoto has me scratching my head for location. Dick Niles dealer plates out of Portland, O. with Oregon plates. But the old growth Douglas Fir and decaying RR cars has me baffled. Any idea where these were taken ? | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Spotted another clue ... on the side of one of the trailers is a logo for the Southern Pacific RR. I suspect this might have been a track gang encampment. The trees look well wind blown. Somewhere along the SP coast line ? | ||

Dick Niles dealer plates out of Portland, O. with Oregon plates. But the old growth Douglas Fir and decaying RR cars has me baffled. Any idea where these were taken ? these cars got around and if you stepped on the pedal the mighty firepower force transfered you to another state, or another dimension (last pic^), in no time... i too believe its washington state. if the pictures with the decaying rr was taken before 1960, could it be the rr cars they sacrificed for the film "ring of fire"? it was filmed in wash state (vernonia?) in 1960. great film, featuring a 61 plymouth.

Location: Parts Unknown | Vernonia is in Oregon, but quite close to Washington, and both are close to Portland, so it is all every possible. The SP line down the Columbia to Astoria ran on that side of the river, and had branch lines into the interior to serve communities along the route. Vernonia was a serious lumber hub into the 1960's, and loggers there were still using old hand-me-down railcars and equipment, so you could very well be spot on, Detektive Sid ! | ||

Expert Posts: 2308 Location: The Bat Cave, Fairborn, OH | The car in the foreground is a 1963 or 64 Chevy. The dashboard and the wheelcover are typical of Chevy during that era. The car parked in the street that you can see just a little piece of the bumper of behind the ladies is the Plymouth - 1955 I'd say.
