Mt Rainier Scenic RR Museum, Part 1, Mineral, WA-Road Trip 2015
Oct 3, 2015 15:32:10 #
When I rode the Mt Rainier Scenic RR, we went to their museum in Mineral, WA (just south of Elbe, WA). We had just enough time to look at all the displays and photograph them. Time passed too quickly and we had to get back on the train for the return trip.
So, I returned in my vehicle to look around at a more leisurely pace. The museum does not appear to charge a fee for anyone enter the museum if they drive there.
