Westbound Manifest at Philippi - a photo on Flickriver

            There is a exit near Quinton siding on Oregon Interstate 84 that is a nice spot for a hit and run photo of a train running on Union Pacific. At 122 miles from downtown Portland, it was a great place to wait for a westbound to chase home after a day spent railfanning in the Columbia River Gorge. Since the exit was for Phillipi Canyon Road, we gave the site the generic name of "Phillipi."

Late on the Sunday afternoon of Labor Day Weekend 1990, we caught a westman at Phillipi with an interesting set of motive power. This was one of the only decent shots I ever got of a UP C30-7 leading a train. At the time, it was moderately amazing to get four different locomotive models on a UP train.
