Wilson Canyon Trestle was part of the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway, which was completed between Portland and Spokane in 1909. The line between Pasco and Cheney was designed to be as level as possible, and included 5 tunnels and 5 large trestles. The SP&S became part of Burlington Northern in 1970, and BN abandoned this line during 1987 and rerouted traffic onto a parallel former Northern Pacific line.
