[or-roots] Travel in 1878

[Suz_ES]

I have a question about travel to Oregon in 1878.  How many different ways
did people come to Oregon?  I am tracking an ancestor that was in Nebraska
in 1870 (1870 Fed Census) and was married in Oregon in 1876 or 78.  I don't
think he came out on a wagon train, but maybe via railroad?  I just need to
know what to persue first.

Thanks
