City of Portland Un-Streamliner

We visited the Oregon Rail Heritage Center yesterday (see post 9/12/12) and next to the building was parked this little guy representing the flagship of the Oregon Pacific Railroad. It runs excursions to Oaks Park and back every 2 hours for $5/person and is a fun and cheap ride for grandchildren without having to drive all the way to Hood River and the Mt. Hood Railway, although that is a lot of fun too. Besides an easy add-on to a tour of the ORHC, OMSI lies just a block north, which makes for a nice and varied day.
