Have seen this thread on another forum and thought that it might work OkieDokie.
[Admin] feel free to move this to a better location, or if not wanted delete it.

You know of those times you have great day, good light and time; so ya go out and chase trains.
Well, as you probably know there are times when everything is pretty much perfect ... except.

I will start it off with one from years back if I may.

Cascade Tunnel West Portal @ from East Scenic.

Even though there is an East Bound green, nothing happened for over an hour so packed it in and got warm. The light above the East Scenic sign shows that the tunnel ventilation is running. Did not notice this in the pix before as that light is a 'flashing' one and just happened to 'click' when it was on. This dates it before the 2nd ventilation fan was installed; circa 1995ish; and that light has been removed. Overpass is Highway 2.

Oops, a factual train sneaked into the top shot. This is former New Haven mainline and those catenary bridges are close to 120 years old. This part of original electrification was put into service in 1907 and there was a triangular catenary here untill early 2000s.
