I have never heard of Castle, Oregon. It could be the name of the location of the coal-fired generating plant located near Boardman (west of Hermiston). It is my understanding that a new spur has been built to service that plant. That is my best guess.
Castle is at the Boardman Airport. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by upguy: I have never heard of Castle, Oregon.
