Wear the story of a Northwest rail connection with the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt. Chartered in 1905, the railway began construction along the Columbia River and soon linked Portland with routes reaching Spokane and other regional communities. Its network grew through connections in Oregon and beyond, carrying passengers, freight, and wartime materials. The 1970 merger into Burlington Northern closed one chapter while preserving the railway’s place in regional history. Made for rail fans and heritage enthusiasts.
Chartered in 1905, the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway was formed by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific railroads to connect their transcontinental lines with Portland, Oregon. Construction began in 1906 from Vancouver, Washington, along the north bank of the Columbia River. The first section, from Pasco to Cliffs, opened on December 15, 1907; the line reached Lyle in January 1908, and the railroad adopted the Spokane, Portland & Seattle name that month. Service between Pasco and Portland began in November 1908, and the route to Spokane was completed by 1909. The company expanded through control of the Oregon Electric, whose line reached Eugene by 1912, and through routes including the former Astoria and Columbia River Railroad and the Oregon Trunk Railway. Its network also served destinations such as Astoria, Bend, and Goldendale. During World War II, it carried war materials to the Pacific Theatre and served industries along the Columbia River. In March 1970, the railway merged into Burlington Northern, formed from four major railroads, including its two parent companies. Today, portions of its former routes are operated by BNSF Railway and Portland and Western Railroad.
