Type 1 MAX Train Celebration

Around 2,000 people attended an event Saturday in Portland to celebrate the Type 1 MAX train.

It was the original train built for the light rail system 40 years ago.

The Type 1 trains are being phased out for newer trains.

People signed the side of the train writing farewell messages.

The Type 1 trains are being scrapped with the materials being used for construction projects.

One of the trains was sent to the Oregon Electric Railway Museum in Brooks, Oregon.
