    Thanks Tim. Yes, I did a how-to article for Kirk's magazine a while back. Here is another shot of the bridge.

    These are at the North end of the UP yard in St Genevieve Missouri. They protect the yard and part of the city in case of a flood. If the gates are closed, trains can access St Gen by way of Park Hills. To my understanding, the last time that happened was during the flood of 1993.

    Black Widow in Davis

    Two Black widows pass through Davis, CA on the Belmont Shore Club. Looks like some heavy weather is approaching.

    Bob's always got such neat steamer shots...
    Who makes the ATSF articulated?

    I recently *today* installed a restored Great Northern switchstand in my front yard--a true railfan's lawn accessory!

    J Widmar- love the engine facility.
