Welcome to the Rose City & NorthWestern

All Aboard!!! Highball with the Rose City & NorthWestern Railroad, where you'll find interesting and intriguing information on railroading and transit operations in and around Portland, Oregon, other locations in the Pacific Northwest, and occasional glimpses of railroading and transit elsewhere in the U.S. and Canada.

Along the right-of-way, you'll enjoy colorful views of the Rose City's regular trains, from TriMet to TALGOs, as well as notable visitors such as Union Pacific's DDA40X "Centennial" diesel and Friends of 261's former MILW "Skytop" parlor observation Cedar Rapids.
