The name of two separate short-lived east side transfer lines. The first, running from 1907 to 1909, connected the east end of the Steel Bridge with the east end of the Hawthorne Bridge. In October 1909, it was merged with the Russell-Shaver line and took that name, though newspaper advertisements referred to it as the “R-S East Side Line” for quite some time afterwards.
The second line bearing the “East Side” name ran from the east end of the Broadway Bridge to the east end of the Burnside Bridge, but within a year it was extended to meet with all of the Willamette River bridges and was renamed as the Bridge Transfer line.
