Hi Charlie---looking forward to that day,you can be sure we'll spend more time at this spot than I did this afternoon.This scene reminds me of another location located near my hometown---Chippewa Creek on Doctor Wayne's EG&E

I was searching photos of Paris and I see some great pictures from atop the hill looking at that trestle. Need to do that one too.

I remember crew changes without the train stopping, and there was crew on both ends. Now they are not allowed on or off moving equipment on most of the bigger railroads.

Nice photos, Ed (as always).

As if we don't have enough problems already with over-eager railfans ruining an otherwise decent shot - now we'll have their techy-toys marring the view, too.
