Crossing the Harbor
Title:  Crossing the Harbor
Description:  I caught this dinky crossing the IHB. How, I can't figure. You didn't hear the trains on the BN, since La Grange had a whistle ordinance. If you weren't looking at the bridge when the train hit it, you missed it. IHB trains ran at about 10 MPH, so were easy to get. The BN was a lot faster.
