The old growth Ponderosa Pines are next level down here. Living, 3D puzzles, constantly changing, sheddin the old, and standing tall through fire and drought. Always been on of my favourite trees and seeing them spread out for days, 50 meters tall is breathtaking. #underthepines #ponderosadreams #seedtotree #ancientforests #desertgiants #magicforests #tree #ontour #adventuretime #oregonoutback (at Oregon)

Burns Oregon had hopes of being a part of the Transcontinental Railroad. A dream that was never realized.

Compulsory Construction of Oregon Line Recommended

A WASHINGTON DC RECOMMENDATION that the Interstate Commerce Commission require the Oregon Washington Railroad & Navigation Company to build a rail line extension across the high desert of the central part of Oregon from Crane to a connection with the Southern Pacific at or near Crescent Lake approximately 185 miles is made by Commissioner Frank McManamy in a proposed report on the complaint filed by the Public Service Commission of Oregon which had asked that one or more of the carriers serving the state be required to build such a line This recommendation is based on a proposed finding that the extension is reasonably required in the interest of public convenience and necessity and that the expense involved estimated at 9,000,000 by the complainant and at 11,717,677 by the OWR & N will not impair the ability of the carrier to perform its duty to the public.

The defendant railroads had taken the position that there is no public necessity interest or convenience to be served by the requested construction and that if the law can be construed as conferring upon the commission authority to require the construction and operation of the proposed extension such provisions are unconstitutional. The OWR & N had contended that the entire proposition of building a line across central Oregon to a connection with the Southern Pacific is economically unsound that the nature and resources of the territory are such as to prohibit development of sufficient traffic to sustain the line that existing rail facilities are ample to properly take care of all needs of eastern and western Oregon and of southwestern Idaho.

The Three Flags Highway is the nickname for U.S. Route 395, a major north-south highway in the western United States. It's known for linking the flags of Mexico, the United States, and Canada, although the southern terminus did not connect directly to Mexico. The highway runs from Hesperia, California, to Laurier, Washington, traversing through California, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. The Three Flags Highway nickname emerged in the 1930s, with the intent of highlighting the route's connection to the three countries.
