UP-Albina Yard
UP-Albina Yard in Portland, OR is a prominent rail yard owned by Union Pacific (UP) and is considered a showpiece of the Portland area. Railfans are allowed to take pictures from the southern access road, but entry into the yard itself is prohibited. The yard is located at the south end of the wye near the east end of the Steel Bridge and serves as a hub for UP's operations in the region. The yard is known for its impressive tunnel, which the single track passes through before reaching N. Willamette Ave. The east side of the tracks near the tunnel provides a good vantage point for photography. Additionally, Peninsula Junction, located nearby, features a four-way wye and a single track diamond, which can be easily observed from N. Columbia Blvd. This railfan guide focuses on helping enthusiasts locate and appreciate the various railroad signals in the area.Generated from the website
