Park-n-Ride No Transit Center No
City Portland Right of Way Private
Points of Interest This it a turn back facility, no platforms, Portland Streetcar, southbound is also here.

This is strictly a turnaround facility for eastside trains. It was the original MAX terminus. When the Airport, Red Line opened, in 9/01, this was its terminal, until it was extended to Beaverton in 9/03. the turnaround became active again for regular MAX trains when the Yellow Line opened in 5/04. Vintage Trolley from Lloyd Center have always used this turnaround for their terminal.
