Title:
AMTK 190 - AMTK 509
Description:
AMTK 190 - AMTK 509 whizzing around the western part of the Vancouver wye as she comes off the Columbia River train bridge and slipping into Vancouver Amtrak Station in the driving rain in the middle of the night (at least its dark enough for it - amazing its only 4:20 / 16:20 in the early, wet winter evening. Concrete silos serving rail-river traffic in the left background, the bridge itself right background (The green light is on the bridge itself for river traffic - when it swings, the light aims up/down river, otherwise its all red along the span. I presume the green also shows the rail traffic when its been properly aligned and locked into position to prevent any unauthorized river traffic from the rail lines.) for a quick stop before proceeding northward.

Title:
AMTK 509
Description:
AMTK 509 in second position at the front of northbound in a broadsides view - unfortunately a bit too far away to be shielded from the blowing rain - speaking of too far away, nice place to plant a signal mast, dang it. (Thanks to Christopher Kelliher for Loco correction.)
