PNWR 3604 |
Description: |
The formerly important Bowers Jct. is breifly alive with the passage of the Albany Turn. The rusty welded rail used to be the mainline (I beilive that was part of the old Oregon Electric) when BN was the owner/operator of this trackage, but after the Fleming trestle burned down, they abandonned it all and sold parts of it to Tri-Met and the P&W. The OE "main" turned into the light rail the runs from Hillsboro to Beaverton Transit Center, and from the old 26 overpass to Orenco Jct (near Hillsboro) it was all abandonned. From noreth of 26 to here, it remained in service for a few years, to service a customer, and I think they stored chip cars on it at one point. Once the customer dried up, the rail was lifted from US26 to here and used elsewhere on the P&W. There is quite a large wooden trestle just west of here, and Cornelius Pass tunnel a little further past there. |

Description: |
The Albany Turn smokes it up past PS&P GP30M 3005. Original word was that we were to be leasing the 3005 after we fixed it's Turbo, but now the word on the street says that our Roundhouse may not be able to fit it in and that it may go to the Port of Tillamook Bay instead. |

Description: |
Back out in the middle of nowhere, we catch this final glimpse of the OE Hauler. The way the clouds were starting to take control of the skies again concerned me, so I decided to end the chase here and go home. |

Description: |
About 30 minutes later, the OE Hauler glides thought Front Street. It wasn't a very smooth glide, as the air was dumped as the lead engine went past and I ended up giving the conductor (who is an absolute pleasure to work with) a ride from the end of the train to the head end. |
