I live in Ballard. You would if you could.

Name:

Ballard was settled by Scandinavians in the late 19th-century. While we weren't part of the original migration, we've lived here a long time and still like it.

The Bug Car


photo by Ballard Blog

Railroads are made to haul things. The Ballard & Shoreline doesn't haul much, but it does hauls an unusual load: Bugs. Bugs fly into the halogen light that lights the room. A crew collects the dehydrated remains and puts them into the bug car, which then makes its rounds around the layout. Need some bugs? The Ballard & Shoreline is happy to serve you!
