PORTLAND MAX LIGHT RAIL
Turnaround, Southern End |
|
|
Because Portland Mall rail traffic rotates
clockwise, future trains (in this scene from before service started) will be approaching the camera location, to
turn in the looping area before heading
back northbound on SW 6th Ave. In total, about eight blocks are traveled out of
revenue service between last southbound and first northbound stations This may be the
longest stretch without revenue service in regular use anywhere in the
country.
The Legal and Financial District is visible ahead, and the tall building
ahead is the
loftiest in Portland: the Wells Fargo Center, at 546 feet high. |
