A Type-1 (Bombardier) car leads the consist into the Washington Park/Zoo station in Portland. This is the only subway station on the Portland MAX system, but at over 250 feet, it's the deepest subway station in North America, and the second-deepest in the world.

You don't get the good oil smell like in Boston.

Does it feel like a real subway?

I rode this when I was in Portland in 2004. And those elevators kick some serious ass too. They do about 26 miles per hour going from 450 feet above sea level to about 726 feet in about 10 seconds.

There's a nice comparison between older and newer vehicles here.

Yeah I agree, I really enjoy the rush of air the MAX brings at that stop.
