Remarks & Notes 
A Milwaukee freight led by GP9 285 heads west (south) past a string of loaded log cars east of Maytown, WA on April Fool's Day 1979. The train is en route to Portland, OR and will get on BN trackage rights about 15 miles south of Maytown at Chehalis Jct. The log business actually survived Milwaukee's demise in March 1980.
