New railroad lights at Oakesdale

The Washington & Idaho Railway recently installed this set of LED lights to replace incandescent flashing lights which were damaged by a recent car accident. The railway will also upgrade the train warning system. The railroad crosses Highway 27, also known as Oakesdale’s First Street. Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission approved release of $15,363 from its Grade Crossing Protective Fund for the new crossing lights. Washington & Idaho operate trains on the state-owned railroad which runs from Moscow to Marshall.
