This photograph shows what the LubeXpress looked like before 1950, except that it was a Shell station/grocery store then. The Highway was a two lane road. The business was owned by Earl Reiser. It was the kind of store where you asked for groceries at the counter and the clerk went and got them for you. Tualatin - Sherwood Road and North Sherwood Boulevard crossed Highway 99 at this location, so that all three roads sliced the land up like a pizza for six. That's why old timers still refer to the area as "Six Corners." Call 503-625-6117, Extension 21 for more about the Power Show.

I remember the signs that you used to see in that town: "Watch Progress Progress!" And she sure did. As for the Power Show, The Sherwood Historical Society had its old spot in the middle of the exhibition. Poor Clyde List played his fingers to the bone all by himself without you there to back him up. Bluegrass music and antique engines have a similar beat, it turns out.
