Union Station In Portland
Portland Union Station was constructed in 1896 and has been in continuous operation since that time.
The centerpiece of the Romanesque and Queen Anne architecture is the 150-foot clock tower with its four-sided Seth Thomas clock that makes this landmark easily distinguishable.
The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
The signs read "Go by Train" on the northeast and southwest sides and "Union Station" on the northwest and southeast sides.

The Oregon Trail
The Oregon Trail was a 3,490 km east–west, large-wheeled wagon route and emigrant trail in North America that connected the Missouri River to valleys in Oregon Territory.
The eastern part of the Oregon Trail crossed what is now the states of Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming.
The western half crossed the current states of Idaho and Oregon.
Today's blog pictures were taken while driving from Idaho to Oregon.
