This is the final post at Washington Railblog.
When I started WARail back in late 2007, it was with excitement that I decided to share my love for railroading with the world. Blogging is the perfect format to share the things I've picked up around the area. In just over 2 years the blog has amassed over 300 posts, ranging from news bits, the need for safety, and photos related to railroading in The Evergreen State. I'm proud of what I've accomplished with the blog, and learned much from the posting and the interaction with other railroading enthusiasts. Ultimately it brought out the desire to do more photography, because WARail gave me an outlet to post and share railroad photos with others in the area.
But from this day forward, all my rail-related articles will be posted at Wet Rails in the Seattle P-I's "Reader Blog" area; this allows me to post in a way that better matches my interests and needs. The topics and content will be much the same, and for me there is access to a larger number of readers. I've also noticed - so far - that more people comment on my Wet Rails post than ever did on WARail. Comments shared by readers help me steer the message, among other things.
Since there are over 300 posts here, I will keep WARail online as an archive of sorts for the foreseeable future at web address http://warailusa.blogspot.com. If you are interested in other rail-related blogs, please visit some of these great selections:
Oil-Electric - Railroading history, tied to photo from the past
Lost Rail - Focused on highlighting what's left of The Milwaukee Road in the The West
Dog Caught - Rail Photo Blog

Thanks to all who have visited and commented on Washington Railblog during its active time. I look forward to hearing from you at Wet Rails in the future!
