Steve Sloan's Trains : Trip Notes : 2010 : Sunday, June 20, 2010

Sunday, June 20, 2010

Sunday June 20 I spent a lot of time on the Tifft Street bridge. The volume of trains was huge. Three railroads run under the bridge including the Buffalo and Pittsburg, CSX and NS. I followed an ethanol train back to Depew and finished the afternoon shooting more here. To see more train photos from this day click here.
