This photograph bothers me a lot. Understanding the "rich history" of the City of Bellingham and BNSF would take weeks of work. But whatever that history, a derailment into the middle of Boulevard Park or Harris Street Pier would be an unbelievable disaster. Actually, just having some park goers crushed on a pocket beach by a falling retaining wall would be disastrous as well. The hydrostatic forces on this area can considerable during a storm surge.
We have already had one tragic rail death last year in this park. Please tell me that the people who are responsible....
