Description:

This trip is a history adventure stopping at the newly reopened End of the Oregon Trail Museum in Oregon City for a look at the experience of the first white settlers in the 1840s and 1850s. We’ll have lunch (bring your own) on the Abernathy Green near the museum. This was an arrival spot for many early travelers. We’l move on to the new Oregon Rail Heritage center located in Portland on the east side of the Willamette near OBSI. It is a railroad museum engine house. The center sits at the hub of four railroad lines. It is home to historic steam and diesel engines. On our way back to Eugene, we’ll stop at Baumans (heritage farm) in Woodburn for plants, produce and ice cream.
