A destroyed train car and other debris from an avalanche are shown in this 1910 historic photo provided by the Everett Public Library. In 1910, the railroad town of Wellington, Wash., was the scene of the worst avalanche disaster in U.S. history, when two passenger trains were swept away and nearly 100 people were killed. The Iron Goat hiking trail now passes through the area. (AP Photo/Courtesy Everett Public Library)
