Spokane, Portland and Seattle #700 on the turntable at Union Pacific’s Brooklyn Yard in Portland. When this photograph was taken in September 2006, both SP&S 700 and SP 4449 were housed in the Brooklyn roundhouse. Neither the roundhouse nor the turntable remain, but 700 and 4449 now reside in the publicly accessible Oregon Rail Heritage Center.
Very cool. Didn’t know they were building one.
