A Moo Moo Choo Choo

    by Aaron Hockley

    Last week I was on a 5-day vacation with some family, and as we were driving through Wheeler, Oregon I noticed some centerbeams parked on the Port of Tillamook Bay’s tracks through town.  In a brief discussion, I mentioned the unique cow-inspired paint scheme and my mother-in-law didn’t seem to believe me.

    As we came through Garibaldi, I saw a moving train across the inslet, and we eventually caught up and overtook the train.  I was quite happy to see POTB 101 on the point featuring the bovine paint.  After a brief wait, I was able to grab this shot as the train moved along some tide flats south of Garibaldi:
