Big Trains
Ilwaco Railroad & Navigation Co.
In 1882, Loomis started to raise funds for a railroad. In 1888 construction began and 3.5 miles of track were completed. In 1889 the line was finished and regular service started from llwaco to Nahcotta. The extreme shallow water at the railroad's dock in Ilwaco restricted steamboat access to times when it was permitted by the tide. The railroad's schedule was based on the tide charts.
