B&O DC Nostalgia, then and now
Author: bandob

In response to the positive replies to the previous B&O Nostalgia thread, here's #19, "The Ambassador," just about to take the curve under the New Hampshire Ave. bridge in NW DC. This is near the current site of the Fort Totten Metro Station.

Here's the same site as it appears today, only FROM the New Hampshire Ave. bridge.

GReat images. Looking at the two, I can't decide which one I'd rather visit, given the choice of frequent flyer miles or a way-back machine!
