Articulated steam locomotives in the forests of Washington's Olympic Peninsula survived into the late 1960s, as these still photos show. The Rayonier Railroad was among the last to use steam power for logging trains. Imagine the panting of air pumps, the escape of steam, and the muffled chuffing sound as these Mallet locomotives issue exhaust through spark-arrested smokestacks.
