(rshsdepot) Bangor, Washington (U.S. Navy)



Bangor, Washington (Kitsap County)

[not sure yet which RR, GN, Burlington or NP]
Or always U.S. Navy
It is at the end of the dashed line (United States Navy Railroad). Note how they leave Seattle off this map:

This is the current Puget Sound & Pacific RR since 1997. Bought from BNSF.
Originally the Puget Sound & Grays Harbor Railroad (1890). Northern Pacific bought Summit to Montesano at the same time..By 1892 the lines on this map were completed. 

A page of pictures of a 2001 excursion train on the PS& P yields no structures in any picture: http://www.cs.utk.edu/~davison/psp/excursions.html  They only went as far as Bremerton anyway. 

Here is the best picture: http://www.cs.utk.edu/~davison/psp/passenger-027.jpg    

I found a history of railroads in the Grays harbor area, which is the western end of this line..I love the Cosmopolis name ("City of the World"): http://www.cs.utk.edu/~davison/ghrr.html  
Nice map: http://www.cs.utk.edu/~davison/images/gh/image041.jpg

Bangor is also a U.S. Ammunition Depot....

There is a U.S. Naval Submarine Base at Bangor. On the easy shore of Hood Canal.
Wow, a lot of the text is censored....all I am looking for is a railroad station, no subs, no strategic weapons...

Here is a pageful of pictures of the Delta Refit Pier, the Trident Refit Facility, submarines and other naval facilities: http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/facility/bangor.htm
