PORTLAND MAX LIGHT RAIL
Freeway Ahead and Above

I-5 is above as this train heads toward downtown Portland. 

That long freeway route goes from border to border, Mexico to Canada.  And that road passes under, over or by light rail lines in Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, Los Angeles and San Diego.  Who could have guessed all this when the Interstate system was being planned and constructed?
