View from the Salt Lick Point trail
Title:  View from the Salt Lick Point trail
Description:  Wasnt really planning on doing any railfanning, just went hiking along the river bluffs. Turns out there are a couple of pretty clear views from up there. Needed every bit of a 300mm zoom for this one and lost some resolution, but what the heck. This is a southbound general consist crossing Moredock Lake and freshly harvested fields near Valmeyer.
