This was just a couple of years before the 'flying bridges' were constructed overhead, and really ruined the wide open space here; I miss those days!

I was only able to make 1 trip there for an all day trip, but have gone through there many times, doesn't really interest me anymore for a few reasons 1 is what you mentioned about the bridges ruining the shot, 2nd reason is you'd probably get run off there now & 3rd most of what runs these days on BNSF or UP I could care less about, it's far more boring today than it was back then with all the same consists on most trains with few exceptions, today's plethora of GE Widecabs just don't excite me, unless it's FXE, KCS Belles etc
