Nostalgia & History > Thousands of cars go by this CSX bridge every dayDate: 11/30/19 13:39 Thousands of cars go by this CSX bridge every day Author: LV95032 But very few photos are taken. Photo taken from the edge of I95 on the safe side of the guard rail. Access is from a local street - no parking on the interstate.

No small wonder I've never seen a photo from there!
