Walla Walla and Columbia River Railroad : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walla Walla and Columbia River Railroad The Walla Walla and Columbia River Railroad was a narrow gauge〔(UtahRails.NET - Walla Walla & Columbia River Railroad )〕 railroad that operated a 46 miles (74 km) of track running east from Wallula, Washington, United States to Walla Walla, Washington. It is also known as the Rawhide or Strap Iron railroad.〔 *〕 The nicknames of Strap Iron and Rawhide railroad come from the early days when the rail line used wooden rails. Strap Iron was placed on top of the wooden rails to improve the longevity of the rails. The strap iron was secured in place by nails. Rawhide was used when a quick repair was needed to secure a snakehead. ==References==
