PORTLAND LIGHT RAIL
Delta Park/Vanport

This view looks outbound at Delta Park/Vanport.  A train for City Center is approaching.  Traffic on Interstate 5, visible to the right, is heavy, but not as congested as it can often get. 

Vancouver, Washington, lies several miles ahead.  In initial planning, MAX was designed to continue across the Columbia River to that city, a major Portland suburb.  It may yet get there, someday, but voter rejection of a required tax increase led to the indefinite postponing of a route crossing the state line.
