Last week I showed you a picture I took back in 1966 from the swinging bridge over Reading yard.
Here is another picture I took that Sunday Afternoon.

Don't you hate it when those light gons won't stay on the track and you have to look for something to stick in as a load. Like a giant fishing sinker. Got to say I've never seen a blob for a load.

Thanks a bunch for sharing. Love that whole scene with the Reading Company coaches in the background. Nice memories.
