Signal bridge & cantilever & BNSF
Author: Q4960

I thought that I would head to one of my favorite train watching spots in Toluca, Illinois this morning and catch some action on the BNSF as the sun was out and the clouds were co-operating. I was able to see a whopping total of four trains of which I was able to get photos of three. I paid particular attention to the signal bridge and cantilever as their days are numbered.

The signal bridges still seem to be in solid shape, so why tear them down?

Does not meet safety standards for worker protection.

Translation: They're not OSHA compliant.
