Very nice!

Here's Rogue River, Oregon, in 1992, then still part of the SP Siskiyou Line:

Construction of the expanded streetcar line on NW 10th Avenue in the Pearl District of Portland, Oregon. Fancy trackwork was needed to negotiate the sharp corner at NW 10th & Lovejoy. The old SP&S Hoyt St. Roundhouse (where ex-SP 4449 was rebuilt in the 1970s) stood just a few feet to the left of where this photo was taken.

"Lets go then"

Looks like a train to "nowhere"?

OK, this thread is 9 years old, but I just found this. We built that! It was supposed to be for the new stage of the Port of Vancouver expansion. But, the best laid plans of men and mice. Ended up being reconfigured...
