While driving across the St. Johns Bridge Saturday afternoon, I noticed a tank car unit train entering the Port of Portland Terminal 4 complex on the UP St. Johns industrial track.

I'm aware that BNSF runs Bakken oil trains through the Portland area en route to the Port Westward transloading facility on the P&W Astoria Line, but was not aware that UP operated any into the Port of Portland.

Does anyone have any info about this train?
