The museum owns the Snoqualmie Depot built in 1890, 3.5 miles (5.6 km) of railroad right-of-way, and 5.5 miles (8.9 km) of the former Northern Pacific Railway North Bend branch. This railway was built in 1889 as the Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern Railway (SLSE) and was Seattle's response to the Northern Pacific's selecting Tacoma as their terminus. The SLSE was later taken over by the Northern Pacific.
The Snoqualmie Depot is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, ID #74001963.
