Railfan window view of BNSF trackage taken from Amtrak's westbound Empire Builder (Portland section) from Vancouver, WA to Portland, OR (complete trip non-stop). Scenes include the crossing of both the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, as well as passing through the BNSF/UP yards northwest of downtown Portland. Possibly former Northern Pacific ROW (not sure). The video was shot mid-morning on June 1, 2017

I've made this trip several times on the Coast Starlight as well as on the Cascades. You captured it beautifully. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Made this same trip in late June. Gotta love that the Portland sleeper is the last car and this can be done.👍🏾 Good job.

Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy watching your videos. Your perspective on the Empire Builder is second to none and I thank you for sharing your trip.

My pleasure, David. I've made this trip twice in past two years because doing it only once was not enough to take it all in.

Great video. I was going to ask if this was former NP, GN, or SP&S right of way. It's nicely engineered and maintained trackage.... Well, looked it up and the bridges, as well as the line, were originally Spokane, Portland, and Seattle's, but GN and NP owned that railroad jointly. SP&S joined CB&Q, GN, and NP to form Burlington Northern in 1970.

The Station is unique as its one of the few in the country that is on a Wye track. :42 the track going straight is for the Coast Starlight going toward LA.

I wished that they had an Amtrak Train That went to Astoria and Long Beach Peninsula.

I wished they built a triple track mainline to Astoria and Clatskaine Oregon.

How come on Amtrak trains during the trip to the final stop, you must remain seated, and are not allowed to use the bathroom during that time?

@user-AZ-phil 3 месяца назад

Probably because they don't want people wandering around as everyone else is getting ready to get off! And, on Superliners, the bathrooms are downstairs, where the doors are, and they don't want to have someone trying to go back up the stairs while everyone else is coming down the stairs to get off the car! 😮😮😮
