caption_attribution_description: Ex-Portland Traction Company car 813, a 1932 Brill "Master Unit" streetcar restored by the Oregon Electric Railway Historical Society, in service on the Willamette Shore Trolley line in May 2010. It is waiting at the Portland terminus, at Bancroft Street, to start a trip to Lake Oswego. Car 813 first began serving the WST line in 1996, but 2010 was its final season on the line; it broke down in July 2010, and in 2012 it was moved to the Oregon Electric Railway Museum, for eventual repair. This was the WST's Portland terminus after September 2003; previously, it had been farther north. The tallest of the buildings visible in the background is The Ardea.
