The train is an historic steam locomotive operated just two weekends a year by the Oregon Rail Heritage Foundation. If you missed it this weekend, you’ve got one more chance. Matt Picio, Director of Cycle Wild (old train buff) will lead a ride to see the train in all its fully-lit, nighttime glory. Meet at Union Station this Saturday at 3:30 pm. Learn more about the train at ORHF.org.
