"This is my opinion. I wouldn't share but I think a warning is warranted. The Dome is to hot to occupy at all until at least 5pm. So what you get for your $150 is a bench surrounded by a ton of camp sites right next, trash on the ground, space not swept out and a long walk to the toilet. To top it off, the door, that faces the other tents, is clear so, no privacy. Just be prepared and all will be well. "

This train depot was built in 1909 as part of a railway expansion into the Pacific Northwest.  Depots and rail yards were built 100 to 150 miles apart (240km) as crew rest stops and an engine service stations.  Originally this yard consisted of the depot, roundhouse, turntable, ash tank, water tank and bunkhouse.  When the line was electrified in 1920 the substation (seen in the background) was added.

By 1980 The Milwaukee Road was near bankruptcy.  They sold off most of their property and transferred the line itself to the state.  Today, a 100 mile stretch of that line forms the John Wayne Pioneer Trail, a non-motorized trail open to the public, including a 2.3 mile long (3.7km) tunnel under Snoqualmie Pass (remember to bring your flashlight).
