Is This the Best Place to Railfan Near Seattle?

Carkeek Park, north of Seattle, has a nice pedestrian bridge over the tracks.  With the Puget Sound in the background, it's one of the best places to railfan near Seattle!

Carkeek Park is really nice, but I like Edmonds, too.

The waterfront is probably my favorite place.

That was a lot of lumber!

 

A lot more board-feet than barrels....
