  1. First thing my eyes feasted on was that strong pole line. We do not see many in the east as prominent as that one anymore. Another Great Shot from your archives.

  2. That darned pole line lasted several more years. Somewhere between July 1990 and June 92, they were taken out. That was a period when I wasn’t taking very many train photos.
