Cory argaer General Nice Charlie! I see you finally got to Letchworth! Ive been there once, I was able to film an NS mixed frieght, it had to stop for people to get off the bridge. 4/7/2010 7:51:17 PM
Olaf Junges General Great location, very nice shot! 4/10/2010 11:57:17 AM
Dale Agthe General A fascinating location. Bridge was slated for replacement years ago -- not even much paint left, now. Will this be the next Kinzua Viaduct? 4/12/2010 5:53:50 PM
Atlanta Rails General Amazing that this bridge is still handling heavy freight, wonder if it will get to the point that train crews will refuse to ride across it like the Youngs High Bridge in Kentucky in its last days in use. Phenomenal photo though, the best ive seen of the location. 5/2/2010 1:19:26 PM
Randy Kotuby General Dramatic location, nice photo. 5/3/2010 9:00:05 PM
Bernie Feltman General Cary, Olaf, Dale, Nikos & Randy are all correct 5/10/2010 9:21:10 AM
Chris S General 10 mph over 135 year old iron makes for an uncomfortable crew! Nice shot... 5/27/2010 8:59:18 PM
