dbo:abstract
  • L'Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company (OR&N) était une compagnie de chemin de fer américain de classe I, dont l'ancêtre fut créée vers 1860. L'OR&N exploitait un réseau de 1 839 km situé à l'est de Portland, Oregon, au nord-est de l'Oregon, au nord-est de l'État de Washington, et au nord de l'Idaho. Il apparut sous son nom actuel en 1896 à la suite de la fusion de plusieurs autres petites compagnies de chemins de fer. L'OR&N perdit rapidement son indépendance lorsque l'Union Pacific Railroad prit une part majoritaire de son capital en 1898. La ligne devint une filiale de l'UP en 1910 et fut renommé Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company. En 1936, l'Union Pacific absorba officiellement son réseau devenant la ligne principale de l'UP vers le nord-ouest de la côte Pacifique. (fr)

It operated from 1896 as a consolidation of several smaller railroads. OR&N was initially operated as an independent carrier, but Union Pacific (UP) purchased a majority stake in the line in 1898. It became a subsidiary of UP titled the Oregon–Washington Railroad and Navigation Company in 1910. In 1936, Union Pacific formally absorbed the system, which became UP's gateway to the Pacific Northwest. (en)
