Portland, formerly a five railroad town, not counting shortlines. Portland was the start of SP's station numbering system, I always thought that having the SP in Oregon, made the area, at least the Willamette Valley and environs, more tied commercially to California, that to the rest of the Northwest.

Thanks for all the cool replies.
