Featured Presenter - Blair Kooistra - The Milwaukee Road (from Ft. Worth,TX)

Featured Presenter - Blair Kooistra The Milwaukee Road in Tacoma. Blair Kooistra was a teenager when he first walked onto Milwaukee Road property in Tacoma, but being a kid with a camera among usually suspicious railroaders gave him amazing photographic access to the employees of "America's Resourceful Railroad" in its final few years of operation on the west coast. This presentation takes you inside the shops at Tideflats and up and down Tacoma Hill, home of F-unit slug sets on one of the nation's steepest railroad grades.
