Clarification

I spoke with one of my many readers today about the Columbia Gorge Train thing. While it is called the Columbia Gorge Railroad club, it is located in NE Portland and is not far at all from the Rose Garden. So you have no excuse not to go.

The Mt Hood Railway runs out of Hood River, so it is in the Gorge. They run special train excursions throughout the year, including a Polar Express train, a Thomas the Tank Engine Train and a Wild West one. Good for the train fanatical.
