Morton Train Depot (Stations)

[jpetersjr]

The Morton Depot is located near Morton, Washington and was the southern most terminus for the Tacoma Eastern
Railroad which began construction in 1887.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway apparently had control over the railroad as early as 1901.
Under the Milwaukee lease, the Tacoma Eastern built the "Cowlitz Valley Extension" eight miles into Morton in 1910, thus
the birth of the Morton Depot. Later under complete control the "Milwaukee Road" the station served passenger and
freight traffic for many decades. It was closed in 1980, when the Milwaukee Road went bankrupt and abandoned or sold
off it's western lines.

Just finished and uploaded a new scenery object for your American train stations. The historical Morton Depot, originally found in Morton Washington U.S.A.

It should be available for download tomorrow here at RailworksAmerica and at Trainsim.com soon.

Works perfect for a route spanning from 1887 onto the modern day.
