My oldest son and I went chasing freight trains this afternoon after getting our ears lowered at the barber shop... We followed the tracks and found a really interesting bridge over the Scioto River near Rt. 33 and Lakeshore Dr. on the west side of Columbus. Just as we got to the bridge (we parked nearby and hiked up to the top) a train came through the 5th ave. grade crossing and headed over the bridge in our direction! Good thing I had my camera... Here's some shots... You can click the images for a link to my new album with a few more shots from this afternoon: Here's a link to the location on Google Maps: http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF8&t=h&om=1&ll=39.99128,-83.069132&spn=0.001615,0.00228&z=19 What's really great, this bridge is only about 10 min from my house!
