2 weeks agoA Valuable Center that Provides the How⁉️to UpCycle🤳 Humanity's🌏 Past⏳️⁉️ | The Freedom☮️ Found🤔 with Steam's☯️Power & Man's🌏 Know☮️How: Easter Bunny Express @oregonrailheritagecenter #portland #oregon #train #holiday #happy #easter | 45 minute train ride up then back along the river basin, riding a rare steam-powered train - a symbol of man's achievement to push Earth's physical boundaries, traded out for "more efficient" energies. $25/human lets you experience the sensations of the past & this special ride has an Easter theme/surprises. The surprises were low budget decor & sticker door prizes , likely showcasing the financial insecurity of museums during this time period ⁉️ My opinion after first experience: A must for kids and enthusiasts, a pass for those not able to glean the subtle historical pleasures of humanity's past.

a month agoI live in Vancouver ,WA. But I never been there before and heard of it. First time I’ve seen a Rail Heritage center. We learned about railroad history, train’s system and how to navigate it. Kids have a great time.

5 months agoIf you like to geek out on classic trains and such, this is the place to be! I came in to take my daughter and family for a Christmas ride with Santa. It was fun seeing all the classic trains and hearing the interesting factoids about all of these trains. This place is filled with so much history and information that you could easily spend hours here!

5 months agoI live close, and ride my bike past here all the time and have never stopped in. But now I have and I want to go back. Not a lot of trains, but plenty of history and lots to learn. They have the world famous 1941 Southern Pacific 4449 Daylight GS-4 Class 4-8-4 Northern. 1938 Baldwin E-1 Class 4-8-4 Northern and a few Shay geared locomotives too!
