MAX FAQs 
Nice photos! Was this before Oregon adopted area codes? I am noticing there’s no 503 in front of the 223-RIDE number
Not sure of the year on it, but it’s pre-west side opening. And the number’s been changed since then since it’s 238-RIDE now.
Pretty sure it was done for the *eastside* opening. Does it seem 80’s?
Was it for the opening? I thought it was sometime before the west side opened, but I didn’t know if it was done for the eastside opening itself or some time in between the two.
Judging from the content, It appears to primarily apply to the alignment along Burnside, so probably for the east side opening
Yeah, I figured it was eastside, I just didn’t know if it was done for the actual opening of the line, or at some later point between then and the westside expansion.
Neat piece of history, and good advice as well.
