Thanks Stephen, This is a location I enjoy shooting, but have to wait for the last minute to drive up & stop on an overpass in the middle of the road with my hazards on, otherwise you have to park on the other side & walk up on the bridge, which I don't like doing if I need to get to another location very quickly for a CSXT train. It's safest to just park & walk up onto the bridge, but I choose to just quickly get up there as the train is coming & park on the bridge with my hazard lights flashing, get my shot & back on the road again. There's 2 lanes so people can go around. I try to time it where I can get up there as the train shows up so I'm stopping, hopping out, & getting my shot then back in the car within a minute then gone again
