Man vs. Nature . . .
In late February 1910, two trains sat filled with passengers and workers, stranded high in the North Cascades of Washington State as a nine-day snow storm ravaged the landscape.
Nature Won
In spite of a valiant battle by the Great Northern Railway to get the passengers to safety, nature prevailed. On March 1, 1910, an avalanche rocketed down the mountainside as the passengers slept on the trains. The trains were swept away down the mountainside, until they came to rest on a ledge above the Tye River. 96 people perished.

Debris still remains at the site where the trains came to rest.
