How the traffic has changed!! Thirty years ago, I spent a day here and saw maybe three coal trains and a local, which was what the line was mostly used for. The coal trains were immense-one was 222 cars, another 225. There was a small area to park in about where you are standing for this photo, which was really convenient. When they rebuild the overpass the train is approaching, the highway people made it impossible to get down into it. Still a good place to see some good action.
