Wednesday was supposed to be the last dry and sunny day for a while. The afternoon found the bike and me on Albany’s Cox Creek Path, where I noticed two things.
Having been away for a week, I took the bike back to the Albany Waterfront Project on Friday. As I had expected, my usual point of access to the Dave Clark Riverfront Path had been torn up.
The Albany City Council is getting ready to spend nearly $2.4 million on changes at 10 crossings on the rail line between Water Avenue and the Dave Clark Path, and you may be wondering why.
The massive log jam on the Albany railroad bridge across the Willamette River may look impressive but does not appear to be hampering navigation.
A chance to work on the railroad? That sounds intriguing. Makes you wish you were a lot younger than you probably are.
Doug Hiddleson and some of his neighbors on S.W. Washington Street are fed up with the volume of the horn of Switch Engine 1501 of the Portland & Western Railroad, and they’ve turned to the city for help.
Railroad likely won’t rebuild that bridge
The Portland & Western Railroad does not plan to rebuild the Marys River railroad bridge in Corvallis unless funding somehow becomes available.
