All pictures taken on a beautifully clear day, Sunday 082805.

This is a new installation where signals did not exist before,
However, there is a CPL bridge further north (OK, east for the hardcore railroaders), about 3/4 of a mile,
We'll have to see if it is coming down once this installation is complete.

Here are a few other things in the immediate area:
