Haunted Hotspots
Wellington Train Accident.
History: In late February 1910, The Great Northern Railroad run from Spokane became trapped by a sudden blizzard at the Cascade Tunnel through Stevens Pass. After a grueling several days trying to dig out, many of the passengers disembarked and walked down the mountain to the nearest town, Wellington and took rooms. When the snow was suddenly replaced by rain, the snow that was held back by the snow shed above the tracks broke through and the avalanche took the trains with it as it quickly descended the mountain. with the town of Wellington directly in it’s path. The dead included 35 passengers and 58 railroad workers. The town was rebuilt and renamed but the memory of that disastrous day remained and in 1929 the remaining residences packed up and the town was abandoned. Although most of the structures are gone, the site can still be reached by hiking the Iron Goat Trail. Wellington is now a popular spot for ghost hunting.
Activity: Visitors often report hearing voices and feeling of being watched. Paranormal investigation groups have recorded EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena).
