Perhaps they are not the stars
but rather
openings in the heavens
where the love of our lost ones
pours through
and shines down upon us
to let us know
they are happy

A Note About the Death Toll From the Wellington Avalanche
It is virtually impossible to know how many actually died in the Wellington avalanche. Published numbers swing anywhere from 96 up to around 120. There is some evidence that the Great Northern Railway, faced with a public relations disaster, made an effort to keep the published numbers as low as possible. They wanted to keep it under 100. There are a number of reasons why some victims may have not made the official death toll.
- The trains, locomotives, and rotaries that had been swept away by the avalanche came to rest on a shelf above the Tye River. The weather warmed while rescue attempts were underway. There is much speculation that this led to a melting of the ice above the river, and there is speculation that a number of bodies fell through and were swept away downstream, never to be found.
- The GNRR was in the midst of labor difficulties. Several laborers had walked off the job because they wanted to be compensated more for the backbreaking work that they were doing at Wellington. They believed that the conditions at Wellington put them in a very strong negotiating position, but the GNRR felt very strongly about not giving in to extortion or blackmail and wouldn't budget on their wages. There is no record of how many laborers walked out and how many remained at Wellington. Speculation is that many of the unknown and unacknowledged dead were these laborers.
- In many cases, the GNRR didn't know the name of the laborers, who received cash as wages. Many of these laborers were Italians, who, at the time, were considered to be almost sub-human. There are six unknowns on the list above -- six unidentified workers. Speculation is that they were Italian laborers, and the railroad had never known their name, which is why they couldn't be identified. The initial estimated death toll came in at right around 120 - before bodies were recovered. There is a good chance that, if the numbers were indeed this high, there were many more unnamed laborers who were left off the death rolls in order to make the number appear below 100.

About the Town of Wellington
A snow shed now stands where the trains waited on the tracks at Wellington.
The crumbling remains of the snow shed at Wellington.
In what was once a bustling railroad town where people built their lives and grew their families amidst rugged mountains peaks, there now sits a parking lot and the crumbling foundations of a few of the buildings that were there. Sadly, the town of Wellington died as violent of a death as did the people in the trains lost in avalanches and other railroad disasters at Wellington.
After the avalanche, everyone wanted to remove the tragedy from the public psyche as quickly as possible. The name Wellington had become synonymous with death and disaster. The town was quietly rename Tye, and it remained intact for another 20 years until the GNRR built a new Cascade Tunnel with new tracks lower in the mountains. When the railroad went away, the town slowly disappeared.
We would also like to remember and acknowledge those brave souls who built their lives in such a breathtakingly beautiful, yet harsh, location. They too endured unimaginable tragedy as they watched the town they had built, lived in, and loved fade away to nothingness. Their sacrifice is no less noble than those who died in the avalanche disasters.
If you look at the U.S. Census reports below from 1900-1930, you will see that the population slowly dwindled until the GNRR opened the new, lower elevation track at Scenic in 1929, and the railroad no longer went through Wellington. The 1910 census data was most likely collected after the avalanche in March of that year.
