                It's sad. I remember when there were more homes and buildings there.

                I took the Bronco up thru some trails, up behind the dump one day there. Pretty neat, I love that place.

                    I showed this article to my 13-year-old....he thought it was cool. I was looking for some pics of what's left of this town, to show to him, and this thread popped up.

                            a band I was in for a while..I engineered etc all of the recordings, played bass, and a little guitar on the recordings there. I have no idea why I've been fascinated with Centralia for years but I have been..and named that band after it

                            Ignore the dying cat-esque caterwauling from the lead singer. He is the single biggest reason the band doesn't play together anymore.
