This video showcases the PCC railroad, a WATCO company, in Eastern Washington through the Palouse Region. This is the Hooper line that runs from Hooper to Colfax Washingon.

This video features two separate days of action with two different trains:

The Colfax Local at 00:15 between Winona and Mockonema

The Hooper Turn at 7:04 between Winona and Hooper

If anything at least check out the action of the Hooper Turn. That is some of the better material here.

Locomotives seen in this video are a GP392, GP40, and GP50 all in WATCO paint.

This was one of my favorite shortline adventures so far. I enjoyed the Palouse Region so much because of how different it was from anywhere around my home.

I was also very glad to get this footage because there will be some major changes with the PCC Railroad in the not so far future including Union Pacific unit grain trains that will essentially take over the duties of the Hooper Turn Train.

I owe a lot of credit for this video to the crews of the PCC too, as they were a big reason I knew what day the Hooper Turn was going to make it's run along the line.

All footage taken from a DJI Phantom 4.
