Sun In October In Washington?

by Steve Eshom on November 1, 2006

Not always does the sun shine in Washington.  I know, that’s a shock to many but it is the truth.  So do I stop using the camera?  By all means no, our weather provides some interesting opportunities to combine it with railroad photography and come up with something different. 

What better to shoot on a foggy day than a marine scene?  An empty Union Pacific garbage train (U-GLSE) crosses over bridge 14 at West Tacoma on a dreary October 28, 2006.  You can see more from this weekend over on railroadforums.

    Steve.

    I keep coming back to this photograph, I love it.

    Not so much the train, the bridge!

    It is not a common design seen here in southern
    Ontario if at all…

    Was wondering if you or other had a photograph of the bridge
    in the open position (fairly narrow channel I see)
    either with or without a train being held?

    Bryce, I haven’t seen a picture of the bridge open. I did a few Google searches but wasn’t able to turn anything up either. You might ask on railroadforums to see if anyone there has or knows of a photo.
