When the railroad was originally built, the connection between the towns of Winton and Leavenworth was made through the untamed wilderness of Tumwater Canyon alongside the Wenatchee River. Since 1928 the main follows a different route, running eastward then south through gentler grades of Chumstick Canyon. The southern end of Chumstick Canyon opens into the hills above Leavenworth. The railroad then winds downgrade through apple, pear and cherry orchards, rejoining the Wenatchee River near the town of Peshastin.

Leavenworth, Washington is a tourist destination. The entire town is done up in a Bavarian theme. Even though Leavenworth "Icicle" Station is nearly a mile away from the downtown area, that theme continues here.

At one time, when fresh fruit was shipped in refrigerator cars, there were perhaps a dozen industrial sidings and spurs at Peshastin. Now the fruit is stored in refrigerated warehouses like these and shipped by truck to your local grocery store. Since the train doesn't stop here anymore, the railroad raised the tracks onto this berm, presumably to smooth out the grade.

For lack of a better term, we call those relay-box-mounted signals "boxtop" signals. The five-digit milepost signs indicate they're permissives. TS technology allows us to assign individual milepost numbers and to display or not display the 'G' (Grade) sign.
