Calliope at Alpenrose Dairy Park, Portland
By Sharon Hart
Hi. Just wondering if you had heard of a place in Oregon called
Alpenrose Dairy. I had the pleasure of hearing a steam calliope that
they had restored which was out for a visit to a town nearby.
I understand that they have a museum which features many mechanical
musical items. Address is: 6149 SW Shattuck Rd., Portland OR.
On the map it's between Beaverton, Portland and Hillsdale. Phone is
503-244-1133.
I understand from talking with the gentleman that they have many
classic rolls. Might be a good contact for one of your members.
Keep that music rollin',
Sharon Hart (still havin' a ball with my l917 Aeolian)
[ It's a lot more than just a herd of cows! The park is 52 acres,
[ and includes a music shop and an opera house with a big Skinner
[ theatre organ. See
