Caboose #700 now serves as the Chamber's Visitor Information Center. Built in the 1920s by a Simpson-affiliated railway company, it's a side-door caboose — a style once used to haul less-than-carload freight to logging camps and to carry passengers when rail was often the only way in or out.

With its arrival in 1924, the Dalby Waterwheel was brought to the waterside town of Union by Ed and Ethel Dalby. The wheel generated enough electricity to power their home and several cabins until the 1940s. The wheel was originally part of a cable car system in Seattle. The Dalby Waterwheel is probably Mason County’s most famous and photographed historical structure.

Arguably, the single most dramatic point of interest in Mason County is the 685-foot-long steel bridge. Perched 420 feet above the cascading Skokomish River, it was originally a logging railroad bridge built in 1929. The view will take your breath away. From Hwy 101, take Skokomish Valley Road for 5 miles, right at FS #23, 2.5 miles to FS #2340, which leads to the bridge in another 2.5 miles.

Tollie is a Shay locomotive, a type of gear-drive steam engine invented in 1879 and patented in 1881. Unlike traditional rod-drive locomotives, its three cylinders power a line shaft geared to the wheels, giving it the ability to climb steep grades, navigate tight curves, and cross rough or hastily-built log spans — making it a workhorse for early logging operations in terrain other locomotives couldn't handle.

Built in 1890, McReavy House is purportedly the oldest standing structure along Hood Canal. The home has been vacant since the children of John McReavy died within a year of each other in 1969. Some claim that the abandoned Mansion is haunted. Haunted or not, the home remains part of the earliest history of Union, WA. The house is currently being restored as a museum.
