Transportation

Description: Aprroximately 1920. Very similar to a photo in 1921 Mountain Ash. Group standing on a flatbed train car. This was a car of the Walla Walla Valley Railway which ran north/south to the east of where the CTC is now located. The students repainted the "V" on this car to a "C" to make the W.W.V. Ry. be the W.W.C. Ry. The railway did not reach College Place until 1907 or 1908. It operated as a freight railroad until 1985.
