Trolley picture of the day

A pair of eastbound SD70s at 1st & Oak

When I went out to preride (again) the Verboort Flat Tire Extravaganza! (which, I suppose, I should start calling by its official name now that I’ve ridden it twice without having my wheels explode out from under me) this morning, I rode my bicycle downtown so I could meet up with Theo Roffe & Ed Groth, ride the interurban out to Hillsboro, and then go on bike from that point. While I was waiting for Theo, Ed, and the 6:40 train, this eastbound train pulled into the opposite platform, so I had to take a picture of it before I turned and dragged the midlifecrisismobile onto the westbound train for the trip out to the wilds of Washington County.
