Welcome to the RRPictureArchives.NET contributor site of Richard Olson.  

I have been railfanning and 'train chasing' since I was a kid. Starting in Minnesota and Texas, then later Arizona and Oklahoma on my own.

Now living in the SE Washington area, I have the opportunity to capture alot of railroad action. BNSF in Pasco, TCRY in Richland, PCC and UP in Wallula, not to mention the other rail lines in the area, current and forgotten.

I hope to add some interesting photos from around the PNW and areas I travel as time permits.
