| There are two tall bridges that cross
the Eagle River west of Minturn. This is the second bridge that a
westbound train crosses and denotes the entrance to the River Run condo
complex. I bet the residents there would really appreciate a loaded
coal train going by in the wee hours of the morning in Run 8.
Speaking of residents of the Vail Valley,
if UP starts running trains over Tennessee Pass again they should probably
have a number of Operation Life Saver presentations and a media blitz about
why you should NOT walk down the middle of the railroad tracks with your
dogs loose and your walkman on full blast.
I thought I was going to see some potential
Darwin Award winners today. "No, sir, you do not have time to go
across the bridge before the train gets here." "Yes, ma'am, they
still can run trains through here, I don't know why your real estate agent
told you differently...." |
