More recently, here in the Portland area, the TNT series "Leverage" has used Dick Samuels' Oregon Pacific on several occasions.
One of the episodes, as I recall, involved a stunt leap off the Sellwood Bridge onto a moving freight. These scenes, and others, were filmed along OPR's former East Portland Traction line down the east bank of the Willamette River.
TriMet's MAX light rail trains have also shown up on several occasions, usually in the background of scenes filmed in downtown Portland.
