Confound it. THIS is a sight I'd rather see from Pillsbury Park while looking at the Stone Arch. Great shot, by the way. Come back, oh tracks and trains, to the bridge Jim Hill gave his name.

Do you know when operations stopped on this bridge?

My understanding is the last passenger train across the bridge was in 1978, the last-ever train (coal) was in 1980, and the tracks were removed in 1981.
