Spokane & Inland Empire Railroad Dock

Spokane resident's love of nearby recreation spurred development of electric rail lines from Spokane through Liberty Lake to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.  From Coeur d'Alene, the steamer "Idaho," and many others, crossed the lake to access more remote areas.  Swimming, picnicking, and camping were favorite activities.
