Big bridge
Title:  Big bridge
Description:  I had always wanted to get a train here ever since I first saw this bridge in 1973. It took me a few years to get here, largely due to youth and lack of resources. By then, the EL power was all gone, but I did get RDCs and U34s there, though by then they were NJ Transit. Still a good spot, even today. Thats NY 59 in the foreground.

Over the bridge
Title:  Over the bridge
Description:  One spot I liked but didnt get there nearly often enough was this bridge on the old Erie just north of Suffern. Heres a Port Jervis train behind one the U34s EL acquired for this run coming off the span and headed for Tuxedo. That's NY 59 just to the right of the tracks on the road bridge.
