Off the bridge, into the shadows
Title:  Off the bridge, into the shadows
Description:  Train 164 rolls off the Susquehanna River bridge into Bainbride, the sun dappling the train as it dives into the shadows. The low winter sun really brings out the colors, but makes some locations hard to get in full light. This would be full sun this time of day in the summer. Note the empty right of way where the old northbound track was.

Through the goalposts
Title:  Through the goalposts
Description:  Not quite, but Id think that every time I saw a train pass between a pair of signals like this. Train 164 rolls south behind a pair of GEs at the old signal 108 just south of Bainbridge. Note the CNJ style numbers on the engine.

Catching some rays
Title:  Catching some rays
Description:  Train 164 is high enough on the famous steel bridge to catch the sun, even though the valley has gone into shadow.
