Rolling along the river  Contributor's Pick!       
A southbound (westbound by timetable) train runs on the BNSF K-Line along the Mississippi River on 5 April 2008 behind BNSF 5103 and KCS 4580. The closer bridge is for US36, the structure in the background is the NS (ex NW, WAB) lift bridge, which is shown in its up positon for river traffic. The tracks in the foreground are NS- they take a cut to the left about 200 yards away and then make a hard reverse turn through a curved tunnel that pops out to cross the BNSF and then the bridge.
