| Under construction, ca. 1936-40; located on a U.S. Government railroad extension from the NP at Coulee City; the NP wanted exclusive rights to the traffic a la the UP at the Boulder Dam, but the government balked and built its own line; the NP still handled thousands of cars of cement to the largest concrete structure in the world at the time (good business in the midst of the Great Depression!), some shots show NP box cars on top of the dam near the crane location shown in this image |
