Trolley Trooper: Richard Thompson Can’T Get Enough Of Portland’S Streetcar History

SNIP:

 

The Willamette Trolley has a car barn, depot and parking in Lake Oswego. When the Sellwood Bridge is completed, the trolley will travel the entire line to Riverplace.

Well I don't know if it will get back to Riverplace.  When the Portland Streetcar was extended to the South Waterfront district, its tracks usurped those of the Willamette Shore Trolley, cutting the latter back to near where what is now the "NS" line ends (by the Old Spaghetti Factory). If the heritage trolley were to run to Riverplace as it once did, it would have to share tracks with the modern streetcars.
