Glad I went out there in 2016 when I did. MILW86A Date: 05/07/19 13:10 Re: Before They're Gone - Photographing Signals on the NS West Sl Author: Pattenburg Birdeman - nice series of photos!
Date: 05/08/19 07:47 Re: Before They're Gone - Photographing Signals on the NS West Sl Author: mbrotzman I'm scheduled to pass through that way on the 24th so hopefully I can get the 2656 auto, which I missed on my last sweep through the area as well as some supplimentary photos of the signal bridge at Lilly.

Heads up re. Lilly - the town maintenance yard next fo the Lilly signal bridge is full of all kinds of material. Some of it is stacked up quite high. The result is that camera angles are adversely impacted. It is possible to obtain photographs but photo angles are now limited. |
