Amtrak's Empire Builder - REAR VIEW - Along the Columbia River Gorge in Washington 

Railfan window view of BNSF trackage along the Columbia River in south-central Washington from the Portland section of Amtrak's westbound Empire Builder. The ROW is the former Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railroad. This video was taken in the early morning of June 1, 2017. The crosstie replacement project seen in the video closed this section of track for two days each in both late-May and early-June, resulting in the cancellation of the Empire Builder and subsequent "bustitution" of passengers from Pasco, WA to Portland, OR.
