Washington to spend $16.1 million to remediate disruptive mudslides
This is long overdue.
You mean “culverts,” not “coverts.”
Maybe a better solution would be to put tunnel liners in and let the muslides finf their way towadrs engulfing the liners.
And even earlier, GN train #27, the Fast Mail, hit a landslide near Picnic Point, south of Mukilteo, WA, in the pre-dawn hours of February 18, 1948. The engineer, Al White, and fireman, W.P. “Bill” Murphy, were both injured when a slide rolled the engine, tender and a baggage car off the track. Murphy lost a thumb when it got caught in a valve handle as #2507 went over the rock sea wall into Puget Sound. See http://www.gn-npjointarchive.org/Lists/GN_Will_Photos/
To William Sornsin. Nice added bit of history. BTW, the 2507 survived to another day and is on static display in Wishram, WA., one of two P-2’s to survive the scrapper.
