This isn't earth-shattering video, but for a railfan in the right place at the right time it was nice to catch the Spirit of Washington Dinner Train on its last run from Woodinville to Renton on July 31, 2007. The right-of-way between Renton and Bellevue - at the time of this writing - is being abandoned (I think it's a bad idea, but that's a whole other subject that I have already fought). Without the right-of-way, the Dinner Train had to relocate. It is currently running from Tacoma out towards Lake Kapowsin in the shadow of Mount Rainier, with plans to operate a total of three: Tacoma, Snohomish/Woodinville, and Vancouver WA.
Now that's my kind of trifecta!
