A goofy photomanipulation of the Museum's Squishable 4024 plush as a stand-in for the real Snoqualmie Valley Railroad 4024. It's pictured at an odd angle, dramatically derailed by a comically oversized penny on the tracks. The smile on the plush and its hang tag have been swapped into a worried frown. The background photo is of the end of the Museum's line in North Bend, WA.
Conversation with family last night brought up the age-old myth that you can derail a train with a single penny.
Spoilers: You can't, but that penny can turn into a projectile! Plus, placing items on train tracks is dangerous!
