NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD – WALLACE DEPOT COLLECTION
The Northern Pacific Depot has a vast collection of turn of the century railroad photographs. While we can’t show you all of them, we’ve added a few of our favorites to pique your interest in learning more about the history of railroading in the Coeur d’Alene Mining District.

BARNARD-STOCKBRIDGE COLLECTION
EXPANSIVE COLLECTION OF HISTORICAL PHOTOS
The University of Idaho’s Barnard-Stockbridge Collection has over 2000 photographs, selected from over 200,000 nitrocellulose and glass plate negatives, taken by Nellie Stockbridge and T. N. Barnard during the years 1894-1964. The photos depict various aspects of life in the Wallace/Kellogg mining area.
The Northern Pacific Depot Museum is grateful to have access to this wonderful resource. Here we’ve selected a few interesting photographs from the collection that are Railroad-related.
While in Wallace we encourage you to also visit the Barnard-Stockbridge Museum to see one of the most comprehensive photograph collections of its type in the Pacific Northwest.
