I originally posted information about Antique Powerland on my website in a PLACES page on November 23, 2007 and last updated it on December 18, 2009. I am posting the railroad-related information here, with pictures and information from the 2010 Great Oregon Steam-Up. All of my information about Antique Powerland can be found at PlacesPages.
Interurban Car #1191 at Antique Powerland on August 4, 2007
1906 Kuhlman Interurban Express Car #1191. This car is an interurban express car built in 1906 by the G. C. Kuhlman Car Company as Mt. Hood Railway & Power #1191. The railroad was absorbed by the Portland Railway, Light and Power Company (later PEPCO) in 1912. This car burned in an accident in 1917 and was rebuilt, changing its appearance considerably.
