Description
Starting in 2002, when it was possible to view trains from the road bridge, I was there to capture double headed 60s on the flyover with a 58 going east, on the mainline, plus 2 different liveried HSTs. Now the bridge parapet has been extended to 6' and even with a ladder, recording is unsafe due to the narrow pavement on the road, so lack of safe balance !! At least I was there before the changes.
