Let’s start with the basics—what’s your favorite Amtrak station in Oregon and why?

Personally, I’ve always enjoyed Portland Union Station. It’s a classic station with beautiful architecture, a great location in the Pearl District, and easy connections to the Coast Starlight, Empire Builder, and Cascades routes. I’ve used it for both local and long-distance trips, and it’s one of the smoothest stations to navigate.

🌲 Southern and Central Oregon Stops: Hidden Gems?
Has anyone here boarded from Klamath Falls or Chemult? These two are often overlooked but are crucial if you're exploring southern Oregon or heading toward Crater Lake or Bend.

While Chemult is super basic (think: just a shelter), it’s practical for accessing Oregon’s high country. Klamath Falls is more established and connects well with local transit.
