The '''''Oregonian''''' was a passenger train of the Southern Pacific on its route between Oakland, California, and Portland, Oregon. The Southern Pacific started the train in 1918. The ''Oregonian'' was initially given numbers 53 and 54, but was renumbered 13 and 14 from April 27, 1927, to May 1, 1931. On the latter date the Great Depression caused a reduction of service so the ''Oregonian'' was renumbered 33 and 34 running only between Portland and Ashland, Oregon. On December 11, 1932, the ''Oregonian'' was consolidated with the ''West Coast'' between Portland and Eugene, Oregon, and ran between Eugene and Ashland as train numbers 329 and 330. Trains 329 and 330 were renamed the ''Rogue River'' on June 13 1937, when the ''Oregonian'' resumed service between Portland and Oakland as train numbers 17 and 18 using equipment idled when the ''Cascade'' received new equipment. The ''Oregonian'' was discontinued on November 14 1946.<ref>{{cite book |last=Beebe |first=Lucius |authorlink =Lucius Beebe |title =The Central Pacific and the Southern Pacific Railroads |publisher =Howell-North Books |date =1963 |location =Berkeley, California |page =620}}</ref>
