      Is this the bridge, where they've been having troubles with trespassing swimmers?

      Looks like a great scene to model!

      :D

      I thought it'd be cool to model too. There are several homes right around this area as well. I don't know if they've had a lot of trouble with trespassers here. I'd hope that noone is jumpming from this bridge 'cause the water isn't that deep here. Glad you guys like the photo. Old bridges like this are neat.

      I'd recently read about CSX having trouble with a bridge over this same river. Apparently a time or two, they have hit people who were using a bridge for water recreation purposes. Is there perhaps another in this vicinity?

      :D

      Didn't know that. That's pretty serious. As far as I know, this is the only CSX bridge over Cattaraugus Cr. I'll ask my father-in-law next chance I get, since he lives up there, and find out what he knows about trespassers there. I'd be interested in reading any articles about it if you could forward or post them. Thanks.
