Historical background
Go to train! Brief and clear. Since its construction (and the terminal was built for three years, from 1893 till 1896), passengers have been entering and exiting it almost continuously. Neither reconstruction, nor the transition of the building from owner to another stoped the operation of the portal to the "City of Roses". Union Station (and in the past Grand Central Station, no more, no less) is a 150-foot tower built in the traditions of Romanesque architecture. Apart from the huge two-story waiting room there was a smoking room, a barber shop, toilet rooms, an immigration processing room, a dining room, a lunchroom, a baggage room, a mail office, a telegraph office, a ticket office, a news room, and a baggage checking room on the ground floor. Today it is a passenger terminal serving three Amtrak lines connecting Portland with Vancouver, Los Angeles and Chicago.
