It’s like the best train set ever.
The annual Holiday Express rides are underway again, thanks to the efforts of hundreds of volunteer train buffs. Their work keeps the historic city-owned Spokane, Portland & Seattle 700 steam locomotive running. Thousands of people are expected to take the short ride from Oaks Park to the Ross Island Bridge along the Willamette River during the next two weekends.
