Nostalgia & History > A few more UP - this time in Oregon

Left Wyoming in 75, spent a very cold winter in SD then signed on with the BN as a telegrapher out of Portland/Vancouver. First shot is the UP Bend turn heading north through South Junction on the Oregon Trunk in January of 1979. Middle is a pair of UP switchers (SW9, NW2) crossing Columbia Blvd in Portland. Bottom shot is a hogger grabbing his orders as he hits the BN at North Portland Junction (February 1977).
