Interesting setup there. I wonder what the other direction looked like.

That last picture speaks to me, nowadays, of an America long gone and very distant. Yet, its results and effects, clearly, are evident all around us. Progress and memories galore.

Great shot of a nice S-curve along the river. Classic stuff.
