The event will begin at 2pm on Saturday Oct. 18 in our beautiful Depot. We will be serving tea, a variety of elegant sweet and savory snacks (some made with local native plant ingredients harvested right here in Pullman!), and sampling a locally native herbal tea. Throughout the party we will have 3 guest speakers sharing information about local gardening with natives. We hope this event will be a memorable gathering to celebrate our efforts, plus the appeal and importance of the plants we're bringing back to our downtown. Every ticket includes a raffle entry toward one of several available door prizes, and we'll be providing a sneak peak at additional native species crafts for purchase before our upcoming annual Holiday Bazaar. Fancy hats are fully recommended! Proceeds of this event will go toward supporting and expanding the planting efforts on the Depot's embankment.

All Aboard! 150 Years of the Rawhide Railroad

Fort Walla Walla Museum and Baker Boyer Bank invite you to mark the 150th anniversary of the completion of the Walla Walla & Columbia River Railroad with an admission-free, fun-packed day at the museum.

Join us for a day of fun, food, and community spirit!

The museum will open at 10:00 a.m., with La Monarca food trucks arriving at 11:00 a.m. There will be a Living History walking tour of the grounds, where historical characters will share their insight on the railroad and its creator, Dr. D.S. Baker.

The anniversary ceremony is scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. The first 1,000 guests will receive free food vouchers up to $10 per person, commemorative coins, and tote bags.

Selected student project entries will be displayed and honored at the celebration, and children can ride a mini train around the museum’s grounds from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., courtesy of Costume Creation’s “Chugga Chugga Choo Choo” train.

Community organization partners will also be present, offering information and activity booths that will excite everyone in the family. Learn more about Dr. D.S. Baker and his “Rawhide Railroad,” which connected the agricultural powerhouse of Walla Walla to the world.

Columbia Rail will be bringing several pieces of locomotive history to share, including two cabooses, the historic Abraham Lincoln business car, and the SW1 #104 (manufactured in 1939 and one of the oldest in-service diesel locomotives).
