Fast Trains

    by Steve Eshom

    Once crossing a river was daunting.  Today rivers don’t stand in the way of the fast trains of Amtrak Cascades.

      Wow, nice sharpness there on that pan!

      I am wondering which bridge this is, doesn’t look like the Columbia on the Oregon side due to that road up on the hill…. But due to the blurred background, unable to identify trees I could be wrong.

      Ha! I didn’t mention the name of the river did I? Its the Lewis River bridge north of Vancouver. I’m standing on the south shore of the river.

      Nice shot…too bad the F59PHI’s are crapping out right and left. But nonetheless a cool shot of 507. Nice work!
