Washington and Idaho Railway

The Washington and Idaho Railway is a shortline railroad that operates in the area south of Spokane, Washington, connecting the BNSF Railway at Marshall to Palouse, Washington, Harvard, Idaho, and Moscow, Idaho. It began operations in 2006 on ex-Northern Pacific Railway and Washington, Idaho and Montana Railway trackage formerly operated by the Palouse River and Coulee City Railroad, which had acquired it from the Burlington Northern Railroad in 1996.
==History==
The Spokane and Palouse Railway, a predecessor of the Northern Pacific Railway (NP), completed a line from the NP's main line at Marshall south to Genesee, Idaho in 1888, and a branch from Pullman to Juliaetta, Idaho in 1891 (extended to Lewiston by the NP in 1898).〔Interstate Commerce Commission, 25 Val. Rep. 397 (1929): Valuation Docket No. 959, Northern Pacific Railway Company et al.〕 The Washington, Idaho and Montana Railway (WI&M) finished its line in 1907, extending east from Palouse to Purdue, Idaho.〔Interstate Commerce Commission, 97 I.C.C. 71 (1925): Valuation Docket No. 288, Washington, Idaho & Montana Railway Company〕 The Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (Milwaukee Road) gained control of the WI&M in 1962, and sold the property to the Burlington Northern Railroad (BN), successor to the NP, in 1980.〔Judith Nielsen, University of Idaho, (A Brief History of the Washington, Idaho & Montana Railway Company ), accessed February 2009〕 The BN sold the lines from Marshall to Arrow, Idaho and Palouse to Bovill, Idaho to the newly created Palouse River and Coulee City Railroad (PCC),〔STB Finance Docket No. 33041, 1996〕 which began operations in September 1996.〔Railroad Retirement Board, (Employer Status Determination: Palouse River & Coulee City Railroad, Inc. ), 1997〕 It subsequently abandoned the ends from Harvard to Bovill and Moscow to Arrow, and in September 2006 the Washington and Idaho Railway began operating the remainder under contract.〔Railroad Retirement Board, (Employer Status Determination: Washington & Idaho Railway, Incorporated ), October 1, 2007〕 The Washington State Department of Transportation bought the trackage within that state in June 2007, and kept the Washington and Idaho Railway as the operator.〔Washington State Department of Transportation, (WSDOT Purchases Eastern Washington Rail Lines ), May 11, 2007〕 It also has access to an ex-Union Pacific Railroad line west from Pullman to Risbeck (also formerly owned by the PCC) for railcar storage.〔Washington State Department of Transportation, (Palouse River and Coulee City RR - Acquisition and Rehabilitation - Project Map ), accessed February 2009〕
