White store front far left beyond engine. Tall smoke stack on front of engine. No windows in cab. Coal car in back with name along side: Snoqualmie Mill Company. Snoqualmie Mill Co Locomotive used in 1890s. Mill was located across County road from Weyerhaeuser Barker Building. Same log pond used by both companies. Concrete engine hoses can still be seen from the road. Picture was taken before the engine was sent to Seattle to be dismantled for scrap metal. From Valley Record, "When this picture was taken in 1895, the engine was on its way to the junk yard. The engine came to the Valley in 1889, to serve the Snoqualmie Mill that stood across the river from Snoqualmie. The mill burned in 1895. The old engine pulled a train from the mill to the orchard. Dio Reinig recalls that Mrs. Alfred Coppers who still lived in Fall City used to ride to school on this train."
