Port of Tillamook Bay Railroad Washouts

Washouts in Salmonberry Canyon were not uncommon but in December 2007 flood waters destroyed large sections of the right-of-way in the canyon. With repair costs far too high Port of Tillamook discontinued use of that portion of the line through the canyon thereby creating a "land-locked" railroad.
