Description: |
I patiently waited for the two CP switchers at Miller Road, but the locomotive duo stopped adjacent to the end of a long string of empty autoracks that have been stored for months. It was here I realized that the crew was about to move these cars, and were releasing the brakes to get the train moving. On the left a brand new natural gas pipeline is being installed. |

International Bridge at Fort Erie, Ontario |
Description: |
International Bridge Fort Erie. Originally contructed in 1843. The bridge was modified in 1900, during which time the pedestrian walkway was removed from the main span. In 1903 baseball superstar "Big" Ed Delahanty, age 35, died in an attempted crossing after being removed from a passenger train for being too drunk and abusive to passengers, threatening some with a razor after "5 whiskies". The bridge's busiest day ever was July 10, 1916, when 264 trains crossed. About a dozen trains a day now use the bridge. (CN, CP, and Norfolk Southern). I waited for hours but sometimes there just ain’t no trains. I had to settle for this pretty scene looking over the Niagara River. |
