News Nuggets
Nothing
like events of the day published by newspapers and periodicals of the period to
add to the credibility of the modeled railroad. The Aberdeen Daily World and the Montesano Vidette chronicled life In Grays Harbor
county.
Class
1 railroads had their own papers and magazines chronicling corporate and
employee activities and the WWSL had one too - the Whistler !
Items
of interest without hyperlinks are attributed to the Aberdeen Museum of
History, hyperlink items are from the Whistler (with a tip of the hat to The
Timberman for article ideas the editor of the Whistler just couldn't make up on
his best day!)
