The line ends seven miles short of historic Fort Simcoe, which played a major role in the settlement of the Yakima Valley.Freight operation expanded in March 2002, when the railroad was reorganized into a fully owned, for profit subsidiary of the Yakima Valley Rail & Steam Museum Association. The TSWR is currently operated trains serving Yakama Forest Products, Yakima County, and others. Passenger excursions on this historic line, completed in 1916, provide passengers with a view of a variety of agricultural activities, native animal life, and a breathtaking view of Mount Adams. School charters are also available. Experiences of all kinds await the enthusiasts of Trains.
